Covid Booster Vaccine:

Grange Clinic will now be administering the 3 rd Booster Covid Vaccine to patients aged 65 years of age and over.

Please note the following:

You must be a patient of the practice to avail of the booster vaccine.

You must not have had Covid in the last 4 months and you must be 4 months since the second dose of your vaccine. You can also avail of the booster vaccine here even if you received your first and second doses and booster vaccine elsewhere. By booking an appointment, you are confirming your own consent to receive the vaccine.
