AHS upgrading online immunization booking tool

Mar 2, 2021 | 4:46 PM

AHS is upgrading its online immunization booking tool.

This upgrade will temporarily prevent access to the booking tool from 2 a.m. to 4 a.m. in the early morning hours of Wednesday, March 3.

AHS says the upgrade will improve the capacity of the online tool tool, and ensure Albertans continue to have access to a user-friendly, effective system to book their immunization appointments.

Booking immunization appointments through Health Link will also be affected by this upgrade.

Access to Health Link/811 to speak to a registered nurse for medical advice will be unaffected and will continue throughout this upgrade. Access to the AHS website, including access to book COVID-19 swabbing tests during this time, will also remain unaffected.

Albertans are encouraged to access the AHS COVID-19 online immunization booking tool before, or after these hours while the upgrade will be taking place.

As an alternate to booking through the AHS COVID-19 online immunization booking tool, seniors 75 plus can contact a participating pharmacy. Bookings will be handled directly by participating pharmacies which can be found on the Alberta Blue Cross website.
