Travel health

Stay safe and healthy abroad

If you are travelling abroad you may need to be vaccinated. Please complete the online travel questionnaire below. We will then arrange an appointment (telephone or face to face) with the practice nurse to discuss the vaccinations you will need, which will depend on where you are travelling. This service is only for patients who are registered at Beaconsfield Road Surgery, Hastings.

It is important to make this initial contact with us at least eight weeks before you travel so that the vaccines can be ordered. You will need a face to face appointment to receive the vaccinations, which should be at least two weeks before you travel to allow the vaccines to work.

Some travel vaccines are ordered on a private prescription which cost more than the normal prescription charge. This is because not all travel vaccinations are included in the services provided by the NHS.
