MINOT—Trinity Health is now accepting appointments for adults and children to receive a seasonal flu shot. Options include two Saturday clinics for children under 18 years of age to receive a vaccination. All flu shots are by appointment only.
Pediatric flu shot clinics will be held October 28 and November 11 on the 3rd Floor of Trinity Health Medical Arts. Appointments are available by calling 701-857-5413. Families are also welcome to schedule an appointment with their regular pediatrician or primary care provider to get their children vaccinated.
Adults may receive a flu shot by calling Trinity Health’s general vaccination appointment line at 701-857-2515 or by contacting their primary care provider for a vaccination appointment. Flu vaccines are also available throughout Trinity’s system of rural health clinics.
Patients are asked to bring a copy of their insurance card. Trinity Health will bill all verified insurances.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends a flu shot for everyone six months of age and older as the best way to reduce one’s risk of getting the flu and potentially developing serious complications. Early fall is generally considered the best time to be vaccinated against the flu.
