Walk-in Covid vaccination clinics are open this weekend - here's where they'll be

Last weekend over 30,000 people attended walk-in clinics.

LAST UPDATE | 7 Aug 2021

*Updated at 11.20am on Saturday 7 August 

WALK-IN COVID vaccination clinics will be in operation again over the course of this weekend. 

The no-appointment-needed clinics were open for the first time last weekend and over 30,000 people received a jab.

More than half of those who attended last weekend had not already registered on the HSE’s online portal and 65% were below the age of 20. 

If you are aged 16 or older, you can get the first dose at a walk-in clinic. Walk-in clinics are open on specific days and times at vaccination centres with some already taking place yesterday.

You do not need an appointment during these times, but if you show up outside of these times, you will not be vaccinated.

You can go to any of the walk-in clinics – it does not have to be near your home. You will then get a second dose appointment at a vaccination centre near your home.

People do not need to register beforehand, but if you have already registered via the HSE portal and have a future date for a jab it may speed the process up. 

Walk-in clinics for dose one jabs are all offering the Pfizer vaccine. 

People attending clinics will need:

  • Personal Public Service (PPS) number – if you have one
  • Eircode
  • mobile phone number
  • email address
  • photo ID that has your date of birth – this can be a passport, driving licence, Garda age card, school ID

Anyone who has already registered will only need photo ID that shows their date of birth.

    Tracy I also do career coaching and I think you have offered some very useful tips for people in your article. I wish you well in your new venture which I’m sure will be a great success.

    @Brian Waldron: i admire the energy and self belief to start a new venture and believe many can benefit from career coaching. Kids should taught a lot of this in school.

    But the advice in this article is facile and uninteresting. Dress for an interview? Take three deep breaths?

    At the end of it all there are a handful of pretty self evident interview tips (which I wouldn’t consider strictly speaking to be career advice) and three dull unhelpful tips on starting your own business.

    This was a huge opportunity to get her brand and business in front of a readership. Opportunity wasted.

    @Shazam37: unfortunately the school system in general is bereft of many key life skills, such as preparing for the work environment, communication skills, handling adversity, developing resilience and generally building character and confidence. Whilst parents can only do so much, there is a gap.

    Why would anyone pay for “career coaching” when one can read good interview tips straight off HR based websites for FREE?

    If you have a complete “C U next tuesday” for a boss there is no coaching that can fix that. People don’t leave bad jobs they leave bad bosses. Do yourself a favour don’t be miserable, move on.

    @JimmyMc: “we hope to give them options they didn’t realise they have”.
    It’s about opening your mind and not getting stuck in a rut. Sometimes to move on and progress you need an independent voice to help you take that leap. If you can’t see that I would suggest it’s you who has reached their level.
    The ones with the open minds and flexibility will move onwards and upwards leaving you in their dust trail.

    Tracy,
    I too have been a career coach for some 15 years. You offer some good tips. People often ask me why we need a ‘career coach’? If you liken it to a sports coach; a career coach looks at the years ahead and develops a strategy with their clients where they achieve their career targets and goals using a challenging and rewarding approach, similar to those of an athletic or team focusing on seasons or competitions ahead.
    Best wishes for your career.

    I think good career counselling is badly needed in secondary schools. Consider getting qualified for this. The pay is good and these jobs are very often filled by unsuitable people.
