Child Health & Immunisation
Immunisation from an early age is highly recommended for all Ugandan children. Having your child immunised helps to protect them from the most serious childhood infections, some of which may threaten their lives.
At Trio Wellness Family Clinic, we administer child health care programmes and immunization at all stages of your baby's growth. Most childhood immunisations are given as an injection in the arm or leg, except rotavirus vaccine, which is given by mouth.
A vaccination dose may contain a vaccine against one specific disease, or several diseases. This is known as a combination injection, and it helps to reduce the number of injections your child needs.
Preparing for your child's immunisation
When you take your child for each vaccination, it is important to take your child's health record booklet, so that the doctor, nurse, or health worker can record your child's visit. These records are an important reminder of when your child's next immunisations are due and which children in the family are immunised.
