What We Provide

Every aged care program includes a comprehensive service package designed to minimise administrative burden on facility staff:

  • Pre-clinic consultation. We meet with your care team to review resident vaccination histories, identify contraindications, and plan the clinic schedule around meal times, activities, and care routines.
  • Consent management. We prepare individual consent forms aligned with your facility's existing consent frameworks, including support for substitute decision-makers where required.
  • On-site clinic delivery. Our immunisers work room-to-room or in a central clinic area, adapting to the preferences and needs of residents and staff.
  • Post-vaccination observation. Residents are monitored for the recommended period with documentation of any immediate adverse events.
  • Complete audit pack. Within 48 hours, you receive a full documentation package: individual dose records, cold chain logs, AIR submission confirmations, and a summary letter for your quality records.
