We are very keen to have residents immunised, both for their own safety, the safety of others in the facilities, and because lockdown is tiresome and time consuming for everyone.
Tandara – has a nurse immuniser, speak to staff and they will arrange immunisation.
Karingal, Meercroft, Melaleuca, Rubicon – If you wish to be vaccinated, let the staff know and sign the consent paperwork. The facility will order the immunisations from pharmacy so the doctor can do them on their next visit.
Current immunisations:
Flu and Covid
July-September
Pneumococcus
Shingles
Pertussis (whooping cough)
If you are still gardening, or involved with chooks or other outdoor animals, remember to check that your tetanus immunisation is up to date!
