Flu Vaccination Clinics
VNA Care Network & Hospice's flu vaccination clinics are open to adults ages 18 and older unless otherwise indicated. Pregnant women must provide a note from their physician stating that they may receive the vaccine. Those under age 18 will be referred to their primary care physician.
VNA Care Network & Hospice staff will screen for certain allergies, such as to eggs, egg products and latex, that would make receiving the vaccine inadvisable.
Clinic times are subject to change due to vaccine availability. Appointments are not necessary. Participants are asked to wear a short-sleeve shirt and bring their Medicare or senior HMO plan card if applicable. For those whose insurance does not cover the vaccine, there will be a nominal charge of $25. Check this page for clinic updates throughout the fall and winter.
