IN THE NEWS
On Tuesday, August 31, 2010, from 4:30 PM - 6:30PM, the Medina County Heath Department, Public Health Nursing Division, will be holding a Tdap walk-in clinic for 7th graders (see related information below). The clinic will be first come, first served while supplies of vaccine last. The clinic will be held at the Medina County Health Department, 4800 Ledgewood Drive, Medina. Please bring your child's immunization record. The cost for Medina County residents is $10.
During the week of August 9-13, 2010, the Medina County Health Department is dedicating Public Health Nurses to provide back-to-school immunizations, including Tdap. Please note that all seventh graders entering school in the State of Ohio during 2010 will be required to have received a single dose of Tdap. A single dose of the vaccine is also recommended for all other adolescents who have not yet received Tdap vaccine or Td booster, and adults 19 to 64 years of age. It is especially important for those who have direct contact with infants 12 months of age and younger, such as parents, grandparents, childcare providers, and healthcare workers. Call 330-723-9688 or toll-free at 1-888-723-9688 to schedule your appointment. Click here for more information.
The most significant change is the Tdap booster for incoming seventh-grade students, because currently only 30 percent of these students have received this inoculation! The Medina County Health Department Division of Public Health Nursing is working with each school district to provide immunizations. Call 330-723-9688 or toll-fee at 1-888-723-9688 for details, or contact your school. You may also call to make an appointment at the Health Department to keep your child up-to-date with his/her immunizations. Click here for a Tdap consent form and Vaccine Information Sheet (VIS).
