These services are designed to promote public health by ensuring that community members are protected against illnesses such as influenza, measles, rubella, whooping cough, and others that can cause serious health complications, particularly for pacific communities. PUCHS’s immunisation programs are accessible to people of all ages, from infants to adults, and they are particularly committed to making these services available to families within the wider Porirua community.
