Travel
If you wish to have a travel risk assessment performed by the nurse please complete a travel risk management form. You can access the Travel Risk Management Form here. The top section of the form should be completed for each patient travelling, (please download a form for each person) and can be dropped off at reception or emailed to the surgery using wickhambrook.admin@nhs.net. Immunisations can take weeks to become effective so we advise you submit the form to the practice well in advance of your planned departure, at least 6-8 weeks prior to travel. If your travel is complex or for example of a more basic "back-packing" style we would recommend contacting us several months in advance if possible.
Once you have returned your completed form the nurse will contact you during her next travel clinic to discuss which vaccines are recommended for your trip and the amount of time you are likely to need for your travel appointment(s) at the surgery.
If your travel is taking place sooner than 6-8 weeks we advise you contact a travel clinic to assess your needs. Please explore the links below for information on travel health clinics.
