Checks first
Prescription, age, past reactions, allergies, pregnancy and current illness are checked before every vaccine.
Cold chain and safety
A vaccine only works if it has been stored at the right temperature the whole way. This is how we handle every dose.
Kept at 2–8 °C, and logged
Most vaccines must stay between 2 °C and 8 °C. Too warm and they lose strength; frozen, some are damaged permanently. Neither is visible from the outside.
- Vaccines stored refrigerated at 2–8 °C until dispatch
- Carried in insulated vaccine boxes with ice packs
- Temperature recorded with a photo at dispatch
- Temperature recorded again on arrival, before the box is opened
- The full temperature log is shared with you after the visit
Vaccines are kept at 2–8 °C in insulated boxes. Our nurse records the temperature with a photo when the box leaves and again when it reaches you.
