Not sure what the answer is it might vary state by state. I know a few years ago that was discussed. But with the advent of the walk-in care centers like Walgreens has- the nurse practicioners want to protect their turf. The pharmacy schools have had training for their graduates but I know Northeastern University in Boston, MA specifically kept certified pharmacy technicians out. Hope that helps I would like to know the definitive answer myself.
yes pleas
Many clinics, doctors, and even pharmacies will offer free flu shots. Checking with one's local pharmacy may be the fastest way to obtain a free flu shots. Often times, children, pregnant women, and the elderly may be given priority for these, as well as the economically disadvantaged.
You don't. Go get one at the doctor or pharmacy.
No, there is no live bacteria in flu shots. Flu shots are to prevent the flu which is caused by a virus, not bacteria. The various flu vaccines contain pieces of viruses that are treated to be able to give you immunization, but not make you sick from the virus contained in the vaccination. The flu shots contain inert ("dead") viruses or pieces of viruses instead of whole particles. The flu mist used in the nasal vaccination is made with active ("live") but weakened viruses that can not make you sick if you have an otherwise healthy body and immune system.
I'd take a flu mist. The one when it is sprayed up your nose. A lot of people get sick from flu shots.
A FLU nurse is an LPN or RN who administers flu shots.
NO
The A-H1N1/09 "Swine Flu" shots and nasal spray are being provided by the US government without charge. If the vaccination is being given by a private provider (your doctor, at a clinic, a pharmacy, etc.), they may charge a fee for administration of the vaccination, but they will not charge for the vaccine medication itself. Seasonal flu vaccinations are not provided by the US government for free and the recipient, if not covered by insurance, would be responsible for the costs of the vaccine and any associated administration fees.
All RN's need to be CPR certified in Tennessee.
Some flu clinics in Milton Ontario are: Onsite Flu Shots - ParaMed, Inside Halton, Hawthorne Health, Prime Care Health, Holly Medical Clinic, Primacy, James Snow Pharmacy, Milton Medical Centre, to name a few.
Sometimes you can get seasonal flu shots for free. Lots of churches will have days when you can get them free.
Dead flu viruses to trigger you body into making antibodies to give you immunity to tht strain of flu. Oh, and tiny microchips so the government can track you.
