Children’s Health
Child Immunisations for registered patients only
Remember your child needs FIVE visits to your GP to complete their course of vaccines and to be protected against serious diseases.
What can I expect after vaccination?
Your child may have a sore arm, flu symptoms or fever after the vaccination. If they have a very high fever you can give them plenty of fluids and paracetamol or Ibuprofen.
Age to Vaccinate | Type of Vaccination | |
---|---|---|
Please note that unless there is a valid reason, we advise that all children should have the complete course of recommended immunisations. If your child is not immunised, then as well as a risk to themselves, they may pose a risk to other children as they may be a carrier for these diseases. |
