Do I need to book?

You don’t need to book – just arrive between the allocated times with your Medicare card. If you’re bringing a baby under 12 weeks to get vaccinated, please arrive at least 15 minutes before we close.

What do I need to bring?

• Your Medicare card
• A copy of your child's previous school immunisation history and their 'immunisation record book' (if you’re bringing a child to be vaccinated)

How do I get a copy of my child's immunisation history?

To get a copy of your immunisation history, log in to your Medicare online account or Express Plus Medicare mobile app (through an existing MyGov account). You can also give the Australian Immunisation Register a call 1800 653 809 and ask for a statement to be sent to you.

What vaccines are offered

We offer government funded childhood and adolescent vaccines on the the National Immunisation Schedule free to Medicare Card holders. Some other vaccines will need payment.

Immunisation schedule

For vaccine information for Australian kids aged 0-7, you can use the Immunisation Calculator to find what vaccines are due and when. If you miss any vaccine doses, the calculator will help by providing a 'catch-up' schedule for future vaccines.
