Ordering Information for Fact Sheets & Wallet Cards
Fact Sheets Immunization fact sheets must be made available to patients. You may want to have this information on your website and on screens in your pharmacy to help reduce the number of people asking for hard copies. The 2020-2021 Influenza Vaccine sheets are available on the link above.
Wallet Cards
Record of influenza immunization wallet cards may be provided by the SHA, AHA, and FNJ public health to other vaccine providers who obtain their vaccine supply from public health. You will need some on hand but many patients may not ask for one this year. If you are providing one for a child age 5-8 needing a second dose of vaccine (minimum of 4 weeks later) be sure to also include the date of the next vaccination required on the wallet card. The cards are available on the link above.
