PARENTS: Flu vaccines are now in!

You do not need an appointment but would still need to call from the parking lot when you arrive for this nurse visit.

Children younger than 5 years old–especially those younger than 2– are at higher risk of developing serious flu-related complications. A flu vaccine offers the best defense against flu and its potentially serious consequences and also can reduce the spread of flu to others. Getting vaccinated against flu has been shown to reduce flu illnesses, doctor’s visits, missed work and school days, and reduce the risk of flu-related hospitalization.

Flu vaccines are available Monday and Tuesday, 9:30am-8:30pm, Wednesday thru Friday, 9:30am-4:30pm, and Saturdays from 9:30-12:30pm. An appointment is not necessary. Please call us from the parking lot when you arrive. Do not enter the building unless you have been instructed to do so. CDC guidelines are being strictly enforced. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that all children age 6 months and older get their influenza vaccine by the end of October. Everyone around them should be vaccinated as well.
