Services & Departments

Barwon Health Immunisation Service, working under contract for the City of Greater Geelong, provides immunisation services to all residents in the Greater Geelong region. 

The service provides all vaccines (criteria for free vaccines) on the National Immunisation Program Schedule including infant, pre-schooler, secondary students and adult vaccines.

New babies: Please note babies are now due for their first vaccinations at six weeks of age. If you require further information prior to this please, ask your maternal child health nurse at your next check-up or call Barwon Health Immunisation Service.

School vaccination: The immunisation service visits all secondary schools in the Geelong region. If having an immunisation in a school setting (or your adolescent is home schooled) is not appropriate appointments can be make at one of our community centres. Information on the secondary school program can be found here. 

Immunisation Sessions

Closed on all public holidays (including Easter Saturday). Open on Geelong Cup Day.

Immunisation histories

Children born after 2003 can obtain their history from the Australian Immunisation Register or the MyGov website. For anyone born prior to this, we ask you to check the MyGov website for the history first. If this is incomplete, email Barwon Health Immunisation Service: [email protected] with your name, date of birth, Medicare number, telephone number and address where you lived when you last accessed the service and we will contact you.

For your health and safety, we ask you to read the pre-immunisation-checklist prior to immunisation.

Flu vaccines 2020

2020 flu vaccines are expected late April. Once a date is confirmed, it will be advertised here. Barwon Health Immunisation has no paediatric flu vaccines for the under 3 year olds until then and will have no over 3 year old vaccines after 23 January 2020 until the new stock arrives.
