Children and adults of any age are invited to attend our walk-in flu clinics.

We strive to make this a family affair, and immunize family members six months of age and older. Time and dates will be available on our website each year in the fall. Insured, noninsured, Medicaid, and Medicare clients are welcome.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend that all persons age six months and older receive immunization against the flu on an annual basis. Adults on Medicare are encouraged to participate in the drive-thru flu clinic held early in the fall. Medicare will be billed; just bring your Medicare Part B card.
