National Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Vaccination Program

The National Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Vaccination Program will commence from April 2007.

From July 2007 until June 2009, free HPV vaccine (Gardasil) will be available through general practice and other immunisation providers for:

  • females aged 12-18 years who missed doses during the school- based program
  • females aged 18 to 26 years

 New Health Check

The Federal Government has introduced a new health check. It is available for everyone aged between 45 and 49 who may be at risk of developing a health complaint, like diabetes or heart problems.

The aim of the health check is to help find, prevent or lessen the effect of disease. After all it is better to avoid disease than to treat it.

There is no cost for this service as it is fully covered by Medicare.

Additional practice information

Our practice nurses are fully trained in childhood immunizations, and we stock most vaccinations at the practice for your added convenience.

We can help you with all your travel vaccinations and advice. You need to have these vaccinations a minimum of 2 weeks prior to travelling.
