*This is a sponsored post by CVS MinuteClinic. All opinions expressed are 100% mine.*

Getting into see your regular physician last minute can sometimes be hard and inconvenient. CVS has recently opened up three new MinuteClinics in the Mid-South and adding another one in Bartlett soon.

The clinics have extended hours and convenient services and will always report back to your doctor (with permission). For parents and kids without a primary care provider, a list of doctors taking patients is provided.

The clinics accept most insurance and a national study found that the overall cost for care initiated at retail clinics was substantially lower than similar treatment at physician offices, urgent care centers and emergency rooms.

CVS MinuteClinic - Be Prepared for Flu Season!

Links provided in this post may be from affiliate programs which earns My Memphis Mommy a small commission. Thanks for clicking!


Flu Season is here in full swing and CVS MinuteClinic wants to make sure you know how to prevent the Flu including getting the Flu shot.

Here are a few top asked questions about the flu:

What is the “flu”, anyways? The flu is a respiratory infection caused by a virus. It can develop very quickly and with flu, you always have a fever. Other common symptoms include headache, sore throat, dry cough, stuffy or runny nose and muscle aches (ugh).

How serious is it? Certain people are at greater risk for complications with the flu, including seniors, young children, pregnant women and those with certain health conditions like asthma or diabetes. A misdiagnosed flu can lead to complications, so if you are unsure if it’s the flu or a cold, see your doctor or MinuteClinic practitioner.

When is “flu season?” The timing, severity and length of the annual flu season varies from one season to another, but outbreaks can begin as early as October, and tends to peak around January or later.

For how long is it contagious? The flu can be passed on even before someone realizes they’re sick, since most healthy adults can infect others 1 day before and up to 5-7 days after becoming sick. Children or those with weakened immune systems, that period is even longer.

Did you know there are several options available for flu shots? Here are some:
• Regular seasonal flu shot
• Intradermal shot for those who might be squeamish about needles (approved for adults 18-64; this may or may not be covered by insurance)
• High dose vaccination for customers 65 years and older (provides an elevated level of antigens, which can create a stronger immune response in seniors)

Who can be vaccinated at MinuteClinic? MinuteClinic vaccinates patients 18 months and older. If you have a child between 6 and 18 months, they should receive their vaccination from a pediatrician.

Will it be covered by insurance? Health insurance plans, including Medicare Part B, typically cover the full cost of a flu shot, and MinuteClinic accepts most insurance! MinuteClinic also accepts cash payment.

And...BONUS! Customers will receive a 20% off CVS/pharmacy Shopping pass when they get a flu shot at CVS/pharmacy or MinuteClinic.

Flu Vaccination: Myth Busting!

I only need to be vaccinated once. MYTH! A new flu vaccine is developed each year to fight the strains that are most likely to be prevalent for the season, so it’s important to get your flu shot each year.

People start getting sick once cold weather hits, so it’s too early to get my shot. MYTH! The CDC recommends to get vaccinated as soon as the vaccine becomes available, ideally by October (outbreaks can happen before Halloween!). It takes about two weeks for antibodies to develop in your body to provide protection, so it’s not too soon.

I’ve heard you can get sick from a flu shot. MYTH! It’s actually impossible, since the vaccine is made from an inactivated (dead!) virus, so it cannot give you the flu. If you get flu-like symptoms after getting your flu shot, it’s likely that you were exposed to the flu after you got vaccinated but before the vaccine took effect, which can be up to two weeks. (The only real side effect of the flu vaccine might be soreness or redness where the shot was administered!)

Prevention:

How can I protect myself and my family? Vaccination is the first line of defense against the flu. Eating right, exercising and getting plenty of rest can also help, but the single most effective way to avoid getting the flu to get a seasonal flu shot!

Who should get the shot? Since getting a seasonal flu vaccine is the single most effective way to prevent getting the flu, the CDC recommends that anyone ages six months or older be vaccinated, including those who were vaccinated last season. (At MinuteClinic, we vaccinate 18 mos. and older.)

Try some of these daily tips to keep healthy and help to prevent cold and flu:
• Wash your hands with soap and water often, especially after you cough or sneeze.
• Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough and sneeze, and discard of the tissue in the trash. Sneeze into your sleeve if a tissue is not available.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth, as germs can spread easily that way.
• Avoid contact with those who are sick. Flu is thought to be mainly spread from person-to-person contact (coughing and sneezing doesn’t help!).
• If you’re sick, stay home from school or work to keep others from getting infected.

New Academy Sports + Outdoors Memphis Location - Grand Opening & $10 Coupon!

Links provided in this post may be from affiliate programs which earns My Memphis Mommy a small commission. Thanks for clicking!

Have you heard about the new Academy Sports + Outdoors store in the Mid-South? The new location is at 7926 Giacosa Place. Memphis, TN 38133 in the Home Depot parking lot.

This is one of our favorite stores and we are super excited to have a location not too far from home!

I had the privilege to visit the new location lastnight for the ribbon cutting and Boys & Girls Club of Greater Memphis shopping spree.


The ribbon cutting was pretty neat to watch and, yes, the HUGE scissors do cut. It was great seeing such an enthusiastic team getting excited to open and ready to greet customers with open arms.


After the ribbon cutting, the Boys & Girls club of Greater Memphis arrived. Each child was given a t-shirt and gift card to go on a shopping spree. It was so neat to see the smiles on the kids faces while they were shopping. They were able to grab bikes, clothes, shoes & so much more with the help of Academy Sports + Outdoors.


One of the reasons I love Academy Sports + Outdoors is that they offer everyday and hot deal prices. Plus, their name brand items are wonderful. Many times I have tried other store brands' clothes and after a few washes, I'm out buying more. Let me just say, the Academy Sports + Outdoors brand items I have washed and washed many times and have never had problems, especially since most of the shirts were only $7.

Pictured above, you can see a few deals I saw while visiting. Some of the deals I found were... Fleece Blankets for $3.99, Women's Crew Neck T-Shirts for $7.99, Warm-Up Sets for $24.99 & Additional 50% off Clearance Items lowest ticketed price through November 2nd.
