Travel Vaccinations and advice

Vaccinations

If you're planning to travel outside the UK, you may need to be vaccinated against some of the serious diseases found in other parts of the world.

Our practice nurses are available by appointment to offer medical advice regarding travel and vaccinations where appropriate. 

Travel Risk Assessment

We offer a full travel and advice immunisation service. If you are travelling abroad please complete this Travel Risk Assessment Form.

You can do this by either downloading it, completing it and then email it back to us at hwh.sudbury-admin@nhs.net or alternatively, you can print it, fill it out and then drop it to the surgery.

Please make sure you do this in plenty of time (we recommend 6-8 weeks) before your journey.

Which travel vaccines do I need?

You can find out which vaccinations are necessary or recommended for the areas you'll be visiting on these websites:

Some countries require proof of vaccination (for example, for polio or yellow fever vaccination), which must be documented on an International Certificate of Vaccination or Prophylaxis (ICVP) before you enter or when you leave a country.
