Vaccination

Vaccination is for everyone in every community and across the age spectrum. 

Vaccination is a safe and effective way of protecting yourself and those around you. To optimise protection, most vaccines need to be given several times in order to build long lasting protection so it’s important for both children and adults to complete the full schedule of vaccinations recommended to them across their lives. 

If you have questions about vaccinations for yourself or a child in your care, there are several health professionals that can provide answers including your GP or general practice nurse, local council immunisation nurse, aboriginal health immunisation provider or Child and Family Health Service (CaFHS) nurse.
