Influenza Vaccines are now available at Adelaide Disability Medical Services

We have received a supply of vaccinations for our clients of all age groups.

Patients with eligible medical conditions or those over the age of 65 will be able to receive their vaccination free of charge under the National Immunisation Program.

If you are unsure whether you qualify for a Government Funded vaccination please ask your Doctor at ADMS.

 

Consent

When booking your appointment, please check that either you or your Guardian/Parent have consented to you receiving the Influenza Vaccination and have the consent paperwork prior to your appointment.

 

Possible side effects include:

  • Pain
  • Redness or bruising where the vaccination was given
  • Feeling tired or achy for the next day
  • A severe allergic reaction called anaphylaxis can occur (the risk is one in a million) and this is why we ask that you wait for 10-15 minutes after your vaccine is given.
