Immunisation (vaccination) is the most effective way to protect yourself and your whānau against diseases that can cause serious, and sometimes fatal, illnesses.
We understand that it is important for you to be able to talk about immunisation. As well as providing many types of free immunisations, our kaimahi (staff) are available to kōrero with you and listen to your pātai (questions).
