Immunisation

Immunisation is a quick, safe, and effective way to keep you and your family protected from disease.
The risks involved with contracting one of these diseases is far greater than the very small risk of immunisation against disease.

Please remember to bring your Medicare card, your child’s Health and Development Book (Blue Book) and any other relevant immunisation records.

If a child attending Council’s clinic is under the age of 16, their parent/legal guardian must consent to the administration of the vaccine(s). If you intend having your child vaccinated and are unable to attend with your child, you need to be contactable by phone as the Registered Nurse will need to obtain a verbal consent.

If your child has received immunisations overseas you will be required to provide a copy of the vaccination records.

To improve the service the records will need to be reviewed offsite before immunisation can occur.

Immunisation services are administered by Health & Immunisation Management Services.
