Job-related immunisations for individuals and teams, from healthcare and laboratory staff to construction, veterinary and hospitality workers. We provide the records and certificates your occupational health team needs.
Workplace immunisation
Protecting people at work
Many jobs carry an increased risk of infection, whether from patients, samples, animals, contaminated water or contact with the public. The right vaccinations protect your staff, support your duty of care and help you meet occupational health and regulatory requirements.
At Altrincham Travel Clinic in Timperley we vaccinate both individuals and whole teams. After every appointment we provide a clear vaccination record, and certificates suitable for occupational health files where they are needed.
