Vaccination clinic
Choose a vaccine, answer the safety questionnaire, read the information sheet, and sign consent. A pharmacist still reviews every request before a dose is given.
Which vaccine do you need?
Answer honestly. This is a safety screen, not a diagnosis. A pharmacist still reviews every questionnaire.
If you have a moderate or severe illness, we usually wait until you recover. Mild colds are often fine.
A previous anaphylactic reaction may mean this vaccine is contraindicated or needs extra observation.
Some vaccines contain these. The pharmacist will match the product to your history.
Includes high fever, extensive swelling, or neurologic symptoms.
Some vaccines are recommended in pregnancy (inactivated flu, Tdap). Live vaccines are usually deferred.
Live vaccines may be contraindicated. Inactivated vaccines are often especially important.
We can still vaccinate with a fine needle and prolonged pressure. IM vs SC choice may change.
Relevant mainly for influenza and tetanus-containing vaccines.
Live vaccines sometimes need spacing. Inactivated vaccines can usually be co-administered.
We check your digital record and any paper certificates so we do not duplicate doses unnecessarily.

Consent statement
I confirm that I have been given vaccine information in a language I understand, had the chance to ask questions, and that the answers on the pre-vaccination questionnaire are true to the best of my knowledge. I understand: • Vaccination is voluntary. • Common reactions include a sore arm, mild fever, and tiredness. • Serious allergic reactions are rare; I will remain for the observation period. • This service is offered under local pharmacy immunisation rules and is not a medical diagnosis. • Childhood KEPI vaccines are normally given at public immunisation clinics. I consent to administration of the selected vaccine, to the pharmacy keeping a clinical record (lot, site, immuniser, consent), and to sharing the record with me (and, if I agree, with a national immunisation information system or my clinician).
You can withdraw consent before the dose is given. After administration, the clinical record is retained as required by local rules.
