Vaccination at home for people aged 70 and over

People aged 70 and over can now get their third COVID-19 vaccination dose at home via the Victorian Government's free vaccination at home program.

Through this program, a healthcare professional such as a doctor or nurse will visit your home to administer the COVID-19 vaccine making access to the vaccine even more convenient. An at home vaccination appointment can be booked by you, a family member or carer. This free state-run service is also available to people in aged care services if requested.

How to book

If you or someone you care for would like to book an at-home appointment, call the Coronavirus Hotline on 1800 675 398. If you need an interpreter, press 0.

Are you due for your third dose?

If you received your second COVID-19 vaccination three or more months ago, you should get your third dose now.

You can get your free third dose at any state-run vaccination centre, your regular GP or pharmacy, or an Aboriginal Controlled Community Health Organisation, as well as through the at-home service.
