Community Flu Vaccine Clinic

Once again, Monroe 2-Orleans BOCES is collaborating with Flu Prevention Partners to offer flu vaccine opportunities to the staff and community. The BOCES 2 clinics will be on Friday, Sept. 20, Friday, Oct. 18 and Friday, Nov. 1 at WEMOCO CTE Center A116 (the large room inside the main entrance to the left). The clinics run from 3-5 p.m.; no appointment is necessary.

Community clinics are open to adults aged 18+. Most major health insurance plans are accepted – bring your insurance card.

 Flu Prevention Partners is a full-service, onsite flu vaccination provider for organizations of every size throughout New York and neighboring states. For more information, visit FluPreventionPartners.com. Flu Prevention Partners is a division of Wellness Programs With Value (WPV).

 If you would like to pay out of pocket for a vaccine, the cost is $60 per standard dose and $90 per senior dose, payable by cash or check at the time of service. (WPV is not a provider for Medicaid, TRICARE or NYS Empire Plan.)

 Participants will need to complete a consent form for the vaccine. You can access the consent document online at this link or you can obtain a copy upon arrival.

 Both the Flucelvax Trivalent and Senior High Dose Trivalent vaccines will be offered. Both vaccines are preservative free.
