Flu Clinic Questions

How do I organize my company’s flu clinic?

It’s virtually one stop shopping…call our flu team and we’ll begin the arrangements. 1-866-512-5629 or OnSiteFluShots


What information will you need from my company?

We will ask for:
Your preferred clinic dates
The total number of employees in your company
The number of employees that will be receiving the flu shot


Why do you need to know the number of total employees?

We use a simple guide to help you approximate the attendance of your clinic. On average 25% of your employees will want the flu shot.

How many employees can be immunized in an hour?

10-12 participants an hour. Safety is paramount; this gives the nurse ample time to meet with your employee to review and discuss the consent form, answer any questions and give the flu shot.


What may our company do to help create a successful flu shot clinic?

Give your employees plenty of notice for the upcoming clinic:

Posters: Post throughout your facility with clinic information (date, time, location). Download our Flu Tool Kit to obtain your poster
Email Alerts: Use emails alerts to announce and remind employees of upcoming flu shot clinic.
Appointment Booking Sheet: Have your employees choose their appointment times on a booking sheet. Download our Flu Tool Kit for an appointment booking sheet


When may I book my flu clinic?

You can reserve your spot and pre-book your flu clinic now. Call 1-866-512-5629 or email us at OnSiteFluShots@paramed.com. Flu clinics are delivered between mid-October and December depending on the availability of the publicly funded vaccine.


How much does an onsite flu clinic cost?

The cost varies depending on the number of employees you wish to vaccinate and where the clinic is being held. Flu clinics are reasonably priced as the cost of the vaccine is publicly funded. For more info on cost, please contact ParaMed at 1-866-512-5629 or email OnSiteFluShots@paramed.com

What happens if I need to cancel or re-schedule my flu shot clinic?

ParaMed requires a minimum of 48 hours notice to cancel or re-schedule a flu clinic.
