Question:
My child is afraid of needles. Are there options for them to get immunized other than at school?
Answer:
Children who are not comfortable getting immunized at school or would like extra support can get immunized at their local *health unit. Some family doctors also provide vaccines.
*Health units are also called public health units, community health centres, or primary care homes in some areas of BC.
