TRAVEL ADVICE

From 1st May 2022, all vaccines will be delivered by health and social care partnerships instead of Eastfield Medical Practice.  Immunisations provide vital protection to you and your family against illnesses which can be serious or even fatal. 

For more information on what vaccines you are eligible for, and how to access these, please visit NHS Lothian’s website

www.nhslothian.scot/healthinformation/immunisation

Advice on what vaccinations people may need when travelling to specific destinations, as well as preventative advice, is available on the national www.fitfortravel.nhs.uk.

Those who need further vaccinations can then self-refer to one of many private or charity run clinics at: https://www.nhsinform.scot/care-support-and-rights/nhs-services/doctors/travel-health-and-vaccinations/
