NHS vaccinations

It’s important to make sure that your child has all of their routine childhood vaccinations. It’s the most effective way of keeping them protected against infectious diseases.

Ideally, children should have their vaccinations at the right age to protect them as early as possible and to minimise the risk of infection.

Your GP will be able to tell you what vaccinations children need. You can also find more information about children’s vaccinations and benefits on the NHS website.

RSV is a common cause of coughs and colds. Most people get it several times during their life.

It usually gets better by itself, but in some people (especially babies and older adults) it can cause illnesses such as:

• pneumonia (a lung infection)
• bronchiolitis (a chest infection that affects babies)

You can contact the surgery to find out more about RSV vaccinations or visit the NHS website.

Travel Vaccinations Form

Some vaccinations are ordered on a private prescription and not on the NHS, which means that these will be charged for. Our practice nurse will contact you to explain what vaccinations you need and whether you will need to pay for them.

You can also find useful information about travel vaccinations on the Travel vaccinations page on the NHS website.
