Important: Make sure to bring your Medicare card with you. If you don’t have your Medicare Card, we need your IHI number. Your vaccination will be delayed without your Medicare number.

Flu vaccination is mandated this year.
All staff who receive the vaccine elsewhere outside of Western Health MUST complete a Redcap survey, complete and attach your vaccination certificate available through your Medicare webpage. Please click here to access the Redcap Survey.
