Can anyone in Ireland answer a question re access to medical information?

Hi, I have a friend attending a medical test on Friday and they are required to provide evidence of all immunisations. The problem is they came to Ireland as a young boy and all vaccines had been done in home country. Paperwork to that effect has been lost by friends mother but she recalls she did provide it to friends GP when he first came to Ireland. If gp says they don’t have it could there be anywhere else the record would be kept? A HSE records office or something?

The other question is... he had an injection given in school at aged 15/16. Who would hold a record of this and what it was?

Thanks in advance for any help?

All immunisations are held on record at the local HSE offices. If you give the one on the county where the immunisations were given they will have a record. If they gave the previous records of immunisation to the GP when coming here then it wouldn't be on HSE records but should be in the GP held file so a call to the GP would find that
