Get immunized this summer with your local public health department

Sign up or stop by for one our clinics this summer to make sure you’re caught up before school starts

||| FROM SAN JUAN COUNTY COMMUNICATIONS |||

San Juan County Health & Community Services (HCS) is making it easier for families to get their children up to date on required vaccines. Throughout the summer, HCS is holding immunization clinics on Lopez, Orcas, and San Juan Islands. See our clinic dates and details below!

Immunizations are a safe and proven way to prevent serious illnesses like measles, mumps, and whooping cough. They also help keep classrooms open and learning on track. For most schools, up-to-date immunization records are required before classes start. This is a great time to ensure your child is ready to start the school year!  

You can check your child’s immunization records at MyIRMobile – MyIR Mobile, with your child’s healthcare provider, or at your local public health office. For a full list of recommended vaccines by age, visit the Washington State Department of Health’s website. If you have any questions about immunizations, our public health nurses are happy to answer them! Call us at 360-378-4474 and ask to speak with one of our nurses. You can also email our Immunizations Lead Nurse at nicoleg@sanjuancountywa.gov.

To see all of our immunization clinic dates, visit our website! We are able to immunize all children under 19, uninsured adults, and all pregnant people between 27 to 36 weeks. Call our office if you have questions about eligibility. Appointments for September to November will be available for registration in August.
