Services
Our immunization clinic offers immunizations to people of all ages. Most common vaccinations are included. During the Fall we offer additional clinics to administer flu and pneumonia vaccinations. Our staff also works with area providers to encourage participation with the state-wide immunization registry and to distribute VFC vaccines.

Vaccine Information Statements are available online from the Michigan Department of Community Health.
