Early Flu Shots - To prepare seniors for the upcoming flu season, the Orange County Health Care Agency will provide flu shots at Rodgers Seniors' Center, 1706 Orange Avenue, on Monday, October 17, from 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 noon. Fountain Valley Regional Hospital nurses and staff will administer the shots. Huntington Beach Senior Services Transportation Program provides a unique service to Huntington Beach seniors requesting transportation. On a scheduled route, seniors will be picked up from their home, brought to the parking lot of Rodgers where a nurse will board the bus and give the seniors their shots, and then the seniors will be bussed home. No waiting in line - in fact, the seniors do not even have to get out of their bus seat. To schedule a ride, call Senior Services Transportation at 374-1742.
