Childhood vaccines
(immunizations) are recommended for routine preventive health care for
all children and adolescents. These vaccines protect your child from many diseases by
providing immunity to the disease without getting sick. Vaccines are
given within a range of ages starting in infancy and continuing into
adolescence and young adulthood. The Medina County Health Department
will review with you what vaccines are recommended for your child or
adolescent during a clinic visit. Immunizations play a major
role in keeping children and adolescents healthy.
Immunizations are provided at the Health Department Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and at monthly walk-in clinics in Wadsworth and Lodi. Immunization services are partially funded by a grant from the Ohio Department of Health. |
