Preventive and anti-flu vaccination

Convenient and accessible

Our nurses are available to vaccinate the members of your family. Upon demand, they can come to your home. Even if the anti- Influenza vaccine is not infallible, it can still decrease symptoms and prevent further complications. Our nurses take every step for an optimal result and make sure that nobody has a reaction afterwards.

CarePlus also offers Workplace Seasonal Vaccination. 

 

Did you know?

  • Vaccination is the most effective measure to prevent or decrease influenza and its complications.
  • 70% of people in overall good health that receive the flu shot don’t contract it. 
  • The vaccine itself doesn’t «give» you the influenza virus : if you get it afterwards, it was already within you.
  • Receiving the vaccine yearly won’t make you «vaccine dependant».
  • The vaccine will protect you from the most virulent strains of flu, but not from a ccmmon cold.

 
Those who once got the flu remember it clearly.  Very quickly, the body struggles with an immense fatigue as if a heavy van had run you over. Stiffness, headaches, fever, chills, cough.. This is influenza, the virus that pins you down to bed for a week, at least. Sometimes, complications might lead to pneumonia and, therefore, hospital care. CarePlus offers a seasonal vaccination campaign at home, for individuals; an effective way of preventing people from getting influenza.
