Ochsner Baton Rouge will hold a Flu Shot Fair on Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 9-10, with walk-up or drive-thru service at several area locations, making the process quick, easy and safe.
The Flu Shot Fair is open to adults and children as young as 6 months old. To make an appointment, click here or call 866-OCHSNER to preregister. Flu shots are available regardless of patient status with Ochsner, though online registration requires a free MyOchsner account.
Appointments are preferred but not required.
Each location will offer:
- Fluarix – a quadrivalent flu shot for ages 6 months and older
- FluAD – a high-dose flu shot for patients 65 and older
- Flublok – a flu shot for patients with severe egg allergies
When arriving for your flu shot, please wear a mask. Bring a picture ID and your insurance card. After receiving the shot, patients will be asked to wait for 15 minutes before leaving as a safety precaution.
