2023 Fall Flu Clinics

UPCOMING SBPHC VACCINE CLINICS

PREREGISTRATION IS REQUIRED

Go to home.color.com/vaccine/register/tritown to register

Need Help Pre-Registering?  Call Jill Sweet at 413 717 7209

The Southern Berkshire Public Health Collaborative has released their 2023 schedule for vaccine clinics, including 4 clinics in in towns close to Mt Washington.  Including:

  • 9/15 @ Alford Town Hall from 12 – 2pm (Flu only)
  • 9/29@ Great Barrington Town Hall from 11 – 2pm (Flu only)
  • 10/12 @ Sheffield Senior Center from 9:30 – 11:30am
  • 10/13 @ Mt Everett High School from 3-6pm

The full SBPHC vaccine clinic schedule can be found www.sb-phc.org.

All vaccine clinics will have regular dose flu vaccine, senior dose flu vaccine and a limited supply of egg-free flu vaccine available for those 6 months old or older.  Individuals must pre-register to allow for planning of clinic staff levels and vaccine.

The updated COVID booster is expected to be approved by mid to late September. Once it is available, appointments for the Pfizer COVID vaccine for ages 12+ will be added as an option to the registration page.  Individuals who have already scheduled a flu vaccine can easily add a COVID booster to their existing appointment before or at the clinic.

All vaccines are provided at no out-of-pocket cost to individuals, however we ask that individuals bring their insurance card and their COVID card (when applicable) to the clinic.   We are asking that you wear a short-sleeved shirt.  Pre-registration is required.

To see the registration link for all the SBPHC clinics, go to  https://home.color.com/vaccine/register/tritown.   If you need assistance registering, or need to schedule a homebound appointment, please call Jill Sweet at (413) 717-7209.
