On-site H1N1 Vaccinations Available to Businesses

The Southwest Utah Public Health Department (SWUPHD) is now offering on-site H1N1 vaccinations to businesses that can sign up at least 20 staff to be immunized.

“We now have enough flexibility to send our nurses out to community employers to provide H1N1 vaccine”, said Pat Thomas, SWUPHD Nursing Director. “Hopefully this will make it more  convenient for working people who haven’t been able to get vaccinated yet.”

There is no charge for this service or the vaccine although participants should bring their insurance cards if they have one.

Interested employers should contact their local SWUPHD office for details:

St. George:..........986-2540
Cedar City:...........865-5149
Kanab:.................644-2537
Beaver:.................438-2482
Panguitch:............676-2792

Additional reminder: Children aged 9 or younger who had their H1N1 vaccination over 28 days ago should come in for their booster to ensure full immunity.
