VACCINATION AT HOME

A good rule of thumb is to choose a vaccine that is licensed for use in the United States.  The US has one of the safest, most effective vaccine systems in the world. Before purchase, ensure your Filipino supplier sources their vaccines directly from the manufacturer so you know it is authentic. You should also check that the cold-chain is secure and provides only unexpired vaccines--otherwise the vaccine may be ineffective. zennya has a short supply chain with complete climate control, and our expiration dates are electronically monitored.

zennya Health only uses professional nurses to perform vaccinations, in line with guidelines from the Philippine DOH.

Zennya delivers highly trained nurses to your home using temperature-controlled carriers. The nurse will safely administer the vaccines intramuscularly, in the upper portion of the arm or depending on the clinical decision-making of the RN at the time of appointment.

1. From the zennya app home screen, scroll down to “Home Vaccinations” and tap your preferred vaccination.  Individuals can choose from the flu vaccine, HPV vaccine, pneumococcal vaccine, and more.

2. Select “Get This Service” and you will be prompted to choose which client profile the booking is for.  

3. The app will then prompt you to confirm your booking, verify your location, and click “Book Later” to select the desired date and time.

When sourced from a trusted provider, vaccines are extremely safe and side effects are very rare.  If you do experience one of the rare side-effects, it is usually minor, such as soreness or swelling at the injection site and a slight fever.

No, zennya vaccines cannot make you sick.  The vaccines we use do not contain any live virus particles. We use only US FDA-approved vaccines and the highest quality controls to ensure your vaccine is safe and effective.

It may be best to defer the vaccination until you are well. You may also ask your doctor if it is advisable to take the vaccine now, even if you are currently sick, in case they consider you in urgent need of vaccination due to your health history.

Yes, you can book more than one vaccination on the same day.  You can have 1 vaccine type in each arm. Please note that you will have to book each vaccine separately on the app for the same day However, we can assign the same nurse so that she can do both vaccines at the same time slot. For example, you can book the flu vaccine at 8 am and the pneumococcal vaccine at 9 am. Once you book, kindly inform us in advance so we can match the same nurse to you.
