Immunisation

       

Immunisation is a FREE service offered by Council to protect the health and wellbeing of our community.

Council offers immunisations available through the National Immunisation Program at a range of centres across the municipality.

FREE immunisations are provided to infant’s age 0-5 years, secondary school children, pregnant women and their partners and catch up vaccines.

All Immunisation sessions are now operating as appointment only sessions and must be secured via an online booking system below. If you need support please call MCH Central Booking 9784 1756

Please note: Council will no longer be taking appointments over the phone.

Siblings can be seen in the same appointment time.

Please only book a single appointment time, complete the booking information for the youngest sibling and then provide information for the oldest child in the additional sibling information comment box, including the child’s name, DOB and the vaccine they are attending for.

If your child has overseas immunisation history or has missed some of the routine vaccines please email the immunisation team immunisation@frankston.vic.gov.au prior to making a booking.
