Childhood Immunisation

It is essential that all children are fully immunised. An infant’s first vaccinations, including HIB and meningococcal vaccine for meningitis, are done at 2,3, and 4 months of age, with MMR at 13 months and a final pre-school booster at 4 years.

Book your appointment with the practice nurse through reception. There are times when there may be concerns about vaccines currently being used. However, it is important to remember that many serious childhood infections are now becoming more common because of a drop in childhood vaccination rates.

We are constantly updated with the latest research and recommendations, so if you have any worries or concerns about vaccination, please consult either the practice nurse, health visitor or your doctor.
