About our service
We offer a specialised immunisation service for children who have had an allergic or adverse reaction to immunisations, or who require immunisations under supervision.
There is also an immunisation clinic for children who are patients of the hospital.
Both clinics are held in Outpatients.

Please ensure you bring your Blue Book to record your child's immunisation status.
The clinic also offers advice and discussion for children and parents concerned about vaccines and adverse events.
