Pregnant women registered at Parish Fields Practice are eligible for their pertussis vaccination from 16 weeks of pregnancy. Receiving vaccination between 20 and 32 weeks of pregnancy provides optimal protection. Vaccination may still be given after week 32 of pregnancy until delivery; however it may not offer as high a level of passive protection to the baby.
To book an appointment for this, either telephone the reception team on 01379 642 023 or use our nurse or healthcare assistant appointment request form.
