(Information provided here is for individuals who have already signed up as a Clinic Worker or who are interested in helping at a mass vaccination clinic.  If you are looking for information on how to obtain an H1N1 vaccination, please go to www.larimerflu.org for further details.)

The Larimer County Department of Health and Environment will hold mass immunization clinics for H1N1 influenza. Vaccine will be provided free to the people most at risk in our community. The goal is to vaccinate as many people as possible in the high-risk groups. 

Individuals/families wanting to obtain H1N1 flu vaccinations must meet eligibility criteria and are currently required to pre-register on-line (see www.larimerflu.org for further details). After proceeding through the pre-registration process, individuals will have obtained an appointment time and must print a copy of the appointment confirmation form. The confirmation form must be brought to the appointment to verify pre-registration.

Clinic flow for patients will proceed as follows: 

Upon entering the clinic, patients will be screened and paperwork reviewed. Once cleared by the Screener, the patient will be directed to the appropriate line to wait for an open Vaccinating Station. When available, the patient will proceed to a Vaccinating Station and receive the vaccination. From there, the patient can sit in the Observation area, if needed, or exit the clinic.

Clinics are being held at various locations throughout Larimer County.  Please refer to the “Clinic Dates/Times/Locations” link located on the sidebar on the left-hand side of the screen of the Larimer Fights the Flu Worker Sign-up web site (www.healthdistrict.org/flufighters) for information on locations and location maps.

Upon arriving at the clinic site, ALL CLINIC WORKERS will report to the Clinic Worker Check-in/Check-out area.  Clinic Workers will be required to sign in for each shift.  At the Check-in area, Workers will receive a name badge, a color-coded vest, and will be directed to the appropriate station or area for orientation. Workers will also be required to check-out after each shift and turn in their name badge and vest.  Information on where to report for Clinic Worker Check-in at each clinic location will be provided in a reminder email which you should receive a couple of days prior to your shift.

“Just-in-time” trainings will be provided for all Clinic Workers and is mandatory for the first shift you work for each position. When you arrive to a clinic, and after you have checked-in, you will be directed to the appropriate area for orientation and training of the responsibilities and tasks you have signed up to work.
In-depth trainings will be provided for Vaccinators. For information about the In-depth Trainings, click on the “Training” link located on the sidebar on the left-hand side of the screen of the Larimer Fights the Flu Worker Sign-up web site (www.healthdistrict.org/flufighters).

All volunteers working any of the mass vaccination clinics will be required to sign a Volunteer Service Agreement form. You can view and print the form which is located on the sidebar on the left-hand side of the screen of the Larimer Fights the Flu Worker Sign-up web site (www.healthdistrict.org/flufighters). Please bring a signed copy of the form with you and turn it in at the Clinic Worker Check-in area. (Only need to submit one signed copy.)

Individuals working at the clinics should wear comfortable clothes and shoes suitable for sitting and/or standing for long periods of time.  Clothes should be neat in appearance and appropriate for the position you are working.

Food will be provided for Clinic Workers. Depending upon the shift you are working, you will be provided either lunch or dinner, plus snacks and beverages. If you have any special food needs, it is recommended that you bring your own food and/or snacks. Refrigeration is not available. Workers may also bring their own water bottles to keep with them at their work station.

There will be no child care provided for children of Clinic Workers. Children of Clinic Workers who are not registered volunteers and who are under the age of 14 should not be brought to the clinic while the Clinic Worker is working.

Clinics will be held in large open areas making it difficult to secure personal belongings. We ask that you be responsible for securing any personal items. You might consider wearing a “fanny pack” to keep any needed items with you during the shift.
