Bartell Drugs has launched an extensive seasonal flu vaccination program, offering convenient in-store vaccinations at all 64 Bartell Drugs locations and an off-site flu clinic program serving area businesses and retirement communities.

Bartells is in Auburn at 3902 A St. SE, and in Kent at 12946 SE Kent-Kangley Road.

Flu shots are available any time, without an appointment, during pharmacy hours. Pharmacists can immunize anyone five years of age or older (ages 5 through 17 must be accompanied by a parent/guardian).

As a convenience for local businesses or retirement communities with 15 or more employees or residents, Bartell Drugs offers its off-site flu clinic program. For businesses, the program provides a convenient way to decrease lost productivity and time due to sickness. For retirement communities, the program not only helps residents protect themselves, but getting a flu shot also protects those around them, some of whom may be at higher risk from complications associated with the flu.
