GET READY FOR SCHOOL

BUNNELL - Florida Department of Health in Flagler County offers required school immunizations weekdays at its health center throughout the summer.

ATTENTION PARENTS:

New and transferring students, Kindergarten students, and those entering seventh grade will need to provide proof of immunizations prior to enrollment. Returning students should have already completed the required shot series. Parents are encouraged to review all records.

There is no charge for immunizations for children, birth - 18 years of age provided they are still enrolled in elementary, middle or high school.

Parents are reminded to bring a copy of immunization records to help identify any needed shots and prevent the immunization nurse from beginning the entire series again. If you have Medicaid, or other insurance, please bring the card with you. During times of high patient volume, there may be a waiting time and clinic may stop accepting patients earlier than the posted clinic closing time.

Back to School shot hours at the Flagler County Health Department will be from July 25, 2016 through August 9, 2016, Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. on a walk-in basis.
