Our pharmacists are trained to provide vaccinations for the following conditions:
Flu Vaccine
Vaccinations are prioritized for Healthcare and Frontline workers, people over the age of 65, pregnant women and people with certain chronic medical conditions. Other members of the population 13 years plus may receive a flu vaccine from 28th April or as advised by Ministry of Health. We are only taking bookings for priority groups currently.
Usual wait period after the vacination is 20 minutes. Adolescents and adults who meet ALL the following criteria may not need to wait for 20 minutes post vaccination:
1. Do not have a history of severe allergic reactions
2. Have been assessed for any immediate post vaccination adverse reactions (5 minutes)
3. Are aware of when they need to and how to seek post-vaccination advice ( call healthline 0800 611 116 )
4. Will have another adolescent or adult with them for the first 20 minutes post-vaccination
5. Have the ability to contact emergency services if required.
If you meet these criteria you may only be required to stay for five minutes.
