Why Get Vaccinated This Year
Influenza is not just a bad cold. It can cause serious illness, hospitalisation and complications – particularly in young children, older adults, pregnant women and people with chronic health conditions. Even healthy adults can be significantly affected.
The flu vaccine is updated every year to match the strains expected to circulate that season. Getting vaccinated protects you, your family and those around you who may be more vulnerable.
The best time to get vaccinated is now – before flu season peaks. Stock has arrived at Rosedale and appointments are available this week.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be an existing patient?
No. This offer is open to new and existing patients. Everyone is welcome.
Is there really no cost at all?
No cost for the vaccine itself. If you choose to see a GP for a separate consultation on the same visit, standard consultation fees apply. The vaccine appointment itself is free.
Can my whole family come?
Yes. Please book a separate appointment for each family member. Children aged 6 months and over can be vaccinated.
Do I need to do anything to prepare?
No special preparation needed. Wear a top that allows easy access to your upper arm. Arrive a few minutes early to complete a brief health check form. Plan to wait 15 minutes after your vaccine before leaving.
I have a chronic condition – which vaccine do I get?
Many people with chronic conditions are eligible for the government-funded vaccine. Our team will confirm your eligibility when you arrive. Either way, your vaccine is free.
