EPA Nurse Lead, Mrs Falena Prouting, says the event last Saturday was a great opportunity to connect with patients and the local community.  

"We vaccinated over 40 people, some of whom were registered patients and others who saw our doors were open and came to see us. Overall it was a successful day and we're grateful to serve our communities in this way."  

Mrs Prouting stresses the importance of protecting yourself and your family, especially as the winter weather approaches. 

"As we head into colder weather, it's really important that we keep ourselves and our families safe. Keeping up to date with immunisations is one of the best ways to protect yourself and those around you from preventable illnesses."
