Flu Shots Update

/in ,

The Listuguj Community Health Services has started running the 2020 Flu Vaccination Program.  Due to COVID-19, we are operating this program by ‘appointment only’.  A large volume of community members has already called in to schedule an appointment.  We are very pleased that so many of us are taking this flu season seriously.

We are following the COVID-19 safety precautions built into our process to keep our clients and staff members safe.  We are counting on your patience and understanding as we move through the appointment schedules.

  • If you have already called in for an appointment, rest assured that you will be contacted directly to schedule a date and time.
  • If you have not yet called to have your name added to our vaccination list, please do so at (418) 788-2155.
  • And, most importantly, for those of you who have received an appointment, we ask that you please respect the schedule given to you out of consideration for your fellow community members.

Again, your Team at the Health Center is working hard to ensure that every Listuguj community member who wants a flu shot will get one in a safe and timely manner.
