Flu Season is here, can you believe it? Woodcreek Healthcare is ready and has received our first shipment of the flu vaccine and we have created special appointment times with nurses so your child may receive this important immunization. The best way to prevent the flu is to get your flu shot as soon as possible.
This year we are only offering the flu injection – the flumist is not available this year. Schedule an appointment with your pediatrician or with one of our nurses at any of our clinics. We recommend calling us as soon as possible as typically these appointment slots fill up fast.
Woodcreek is offering flu shots to children 6 months to 18 years old. Please note that children 8 years of age or younger may need two (2) influenza immunizations this season if they have not previously received two (see the handy figure below).

The annual flu vaccine is recommended for everyone except those with: severe, life threatening illnesses or who have ever had a life threatening allergic reaction to a previous flu shot; individuals with Guillain-Barre Syndrome; or if you have a fever. We recommend speaking with your provider prior to receiving the flu vaccine to answer all of your questions. For more information on the flu vaccine, we recommend you read the Vaccine Information Statement.
