Vaccines are an important part of healthy aging. Staying current with recommended vaccinations can help reduce the risk of serious illness, complications, and hospitalization.
Recommended Vaccines for Older Adults:
Adults 65 and older should talk with their healthcare provider about staying current on these recommended vaccines:
- Annual Flu Vaccine
- COVID-19 Vaccine (as recommended)
- RSV Vaccine
- Pneumococcal Vaccine
- Shingles (Shingrix) Vaccine – 2 doses

Ask Your Healthcare Provider:

✔ Are vaccines safe with my current medical conditions?
✔ Can I receive more than one vaccine during the same visit?
