Community Immunisation clinic booking and enquiries
We manage our vaccination bookings through Vitavo.
Bookings are essential and are now available for our community sessions and individual appointments in selected locations. Initially, you will need to register your details and then add in your children or dependants who require immunisation.
On Vitavo, you can:
- Make individual appointments and see what community sessions are currently available.
- Book and manage individual and family appointments online.
- Provide digital consent during the booking process, which reduces onsite administration at your appointment, and reduces paper usage.
- Receive reminders to book future appointments when you or your child is due for their next vaccines.
If you need help making an appointment, email our immunisation team at immunisation@gcc.tas.gov.au or phone 03 6216 6800.
If you prefer, you can scan this QR code to be taken to our Vitavo site.
Request an immunisation history
Access to immunisation history can be done through the Australian Immunisation Register (AIR) which is a national register that records vaccines given to all people in Australia. To contact them, please call 1800 653 809 to request your immunisation history. Alternatively, you can access immunisation records through the Medicare link in your MyGov account. Information about the AIR can be found on this webpage: https://www.servicesaustralia.gov.au/australian-immunisation-register
If you have checked your immunisation history with the AIR and believe there are record/s missing that were carried out in the municipality of Glenorchy either through a school or our Glenorchy City Council clinic, please fill out the below form.
