When should I get vaccinated?
The best time to have a flu vaccination is autumn each year, prior to the peak of the flu season, which usually occurs between June and September. This is because your immunity is strongest and most effective 3 to 4 months after you are vaccinated
COVID-19 vaccines and Flu Vaccine
COVID-19 vaccines can be safely given on the same day with an influenza vaccine
To deliver this service safely to our customers we have implemented the following measures:
If you are unwell please do not attend:
If you have any COVID‐19 or flu like symptoms including fever, sore throat, cough or shortness of breath please do not present for your flu shot. Please cancel and rebook for another time when you are well.
Aim to minimise wait time in the pharmacy:
We ask you to complete the pre‐immunisation checklist prior to arriving for your flu shot to minimise congestion in the pharmacy. The pre‐immunisation checklist will be emailed to you with your booking reminder 72 hours prior to your appointment. If you cannot do this there will be additional copies in store.
Hand hygiene and cough etiquette:
We encourage all staff and customers to practice good hand hygiene and cough etiquette at all times.

What is an electronic prescription?
An electronic prescription is a digital version of a paper prescription. During your consultation, your healthcare provider can send your electronic prescription to you as an SMS or email in the form of a link to a unique QR code or ‘token’
What are the benefits?
All medicines can be prescribed using an electronic prescription. The message with a link to your electronic prescription is stored on your digital device, so you can access it whenever you’re ready – saving you time, paper and streamlining the process and improving medicine safety
How to get an electronic prescription

*You will then take it in to the pharmacy or email it to us
