Vaccination Clinic at Hua Chiew Hospital
Vaccination is a fundamental strategy for fortifying health, stimulating the body to produce immunity and effectively combat various diseases caused by viruses or bacteria. Currently, there are several types of vaccines available for the prevention of diseases across all age groups, including children, adults, and the elderly.
Vaccination Clinic at Hua Chiew Hospital offers vaccination services for the prevention of various diseases, catering to individuals who prioritize their health. Additionally, the clinic provides consultation regarding essential vaccinations before traveling abroad, considering the variations in immunization requirements in different countries. It is recommended to consult with specialized healthcare professionals post-travel for potential health concerns.
Services at the Vaccination Clinic, Hua Chiew Hospital:
- Consultation regarding age-appropriate vaccinations, considering risk factors, job characteristics, and occupational exposures. This includes vaccinations for children, adults, pregnant women, pre-marital women, travelers, individuals studying abroad, and specific populations with challenges. Patients are empowered to make informed vaccination choices following consultations with doctors and the healthcare team.
- Blood drawing services for pre-vaccination immunity assessments. In cases of uncertainty about prior vaccinations or disease history, blood can be drawn to evaluate immunity levels before deciding on vaccinations. For instance, assessing immunity levels for Hepatitis B and Chickenpox before proceeding with vaccinations.
- Pre-travel consultation services, advising on the essential vaccinations before embarking on a journey. It is recommended to consult with a medical professional at least 4-8 weeks before traveling. In urgent cases, vaccinations should be administered at least 10-14 days before departure for optimal disease protection.
- Tuberculosis infection testing services through the Tuberculin Purified Protein Derivative (PPD)
- Tuberculosis infection testing services through the Tuberculin Purified Protein Derivative (PPD) skin test to detect tuberculosis infection. Results can be interpreted 48 hours after testing. Alternatively, undergo a blood test for tuberculosis infection. In the event of a positive result, personalized recommendations will be provided for further screening and assessment of additional tuberculosis-related conditions, as deemed appropriate.
- Vaccination services for preventable diseases based on potential exposure. This includes pre-exposure prophylaxis for rabies for individuals at risk of animal bites but not bitten, such as medical personnel, veterinarians, individuals working closely with animals, and the general public keeping pets susceptible to rabies (e.g., dogs, cats and squirrels). Receiving pre-exposure prophylaxis vaccinations before potential disease exposure prepares the body to develop immunity against diseases such as rabies.
A simple 1-2 dose vaccination regimen can be administered without the need for subsequent serum injections after exposure to an animal bite.
