Immunization Clinic

We currently offer COVID‑19 vaccination to the following groups, if they meet Ministry of Health eligibility criteria:

• children aged 6 months to 11 years old
• individuals aged 6 months and older without a health card

Eligibility is set by the Ministry of Health and may change over time.

COVID‑19 vaccines are available in the community through health care providers, walk‑in clinics, and participating pharmacies (Ministry of Health).

We offer the flu vaccine to the following groups:

• children aged 6 months to 11 years old
• individuals who do not have a health card

The flu vaccine is now available to everyone aged 6 months and older. You can make an appointment to receive the vaccine with your health care provider, at a walk-in clinic, or at a participating pharmacy (Ministry of Health).

Every year, public health nurses visit schools to provide vaccines that protect students in Grade 7 against:

• hepatitis B
• meningococcal disease
• human papillomavirus (HPV)

Parents or guardians must provide consent before their child can be immunized at their school. Students without consent will not receive the vaccines.

Each year, immunization records are reviewed to ensure that children and youth enrolled in licensed child care settings and schools have the vaccines that are required for attendance.

Parents and guardians will be notified if Public Health is missing vaccine information for their child. Dedicated appointments are held for those who require vaccinations during the record review period.

When a child receives a vaccine outside of a Public Health clinic, the parent or guardian is responsible to report it to Public Health. Health care providers do not report this information to Public Health. You have several options to report your child’s vaccinations.
