Immunizations & Vaccinations
Preventive medicine in the form of immunizations and vaccinations is important in protecting the health of children, adults, and seniors alike. That is why EMC Express Care in North Richland Hills, Texas offers an extensive array of immunizations to our urgent care and walk-in patients.
Vaccinations for Adults
- Influenza (flu) shot – A flu vaccine is provided annually for seniors, adults, and children prior to winter flu season for all patients older than six months.
- Tetanus shot – We recommend a booster every 10 years (5 years with tetanus-prone wound). Adults and adolescents age 11-18 should receive one dose of Tdap for added protection against pertussis.
During a physical examination, your EMC Express Care physician may recommend an appropriate vaccination based on your medical history, travel plans, or specific symptoms. Some immunizations may also be required to obtain permanent resident status in the United States.
