Please remember your travel vaccinations.
Please book your travel vaccinations, ideally at least 8 to 10 weeks before departure.
Remember we nurses go on holiday too, so we can’t always fit people in if we are short-staffed.
The more time you allow the better.
This gives us time to check your medical records, book an appointment and make sure you are fully covered.
Some vaccinations require more than one injection, separated by several weeks.
Some vaccinations have to be provided by an alternative organisation, privately, such as yellow fever and this may take time to organise.
You should aim to have completed your vaccinations two weeks before departure, to allow the vaccination to take full effect & recover from any side effects.
Get covered and enjoy your holidays!
