Flu and pneumonia vaccination
Each year a programme of influenza vaccination is carried out at the medical centre and it is strongly recommended that patients at greatest risk i.e. over 65 years of age, diabetics, asthmatics and those with a history of heart disease take advantage of this vaccination. Patients should contact the surgery every September to make an appointment.

Childhood immunisations
Each vaccine is given as a single injection into the muscle of the thigh or upper arm. For your personalised vaccine schedule please visit the NHS: Vaccination schedule.
Travel advice/ immunisation
Please book an appointment with the travel nurse at least six weeks prior to departure, as some immunisations need to be given in advance to provide optimum cover. Prior to your appointment please submit a travel risk assessment. Please note that not all travel vaccines are free, so you may be required to pay a charge. It is advisable to bring cash or a cheque book with you to your appointment. Please note that the practice is unable to accept credit cards.
