Birth Shot Records for school??????

Published

I just got accepted to nursing school for Fall06. And I have alot to do between now and then but one thing I am clueless about is how to find my shot records from birth I am thirtyfive years old and I don't have any idea about how to obtain records from this far back. Did anybody else have this problem or a solution to my dilemma.

My school offers immunizations at a reduced price to all students.....good point to add.

I am really suprised that your school does not offer these services to you. I am in the first semester of my senior year in nursing school and our university covers all of our immunizations and physicals that we have to have throughout the program. They also covered a couple that I hadn't had recently enough before I started the program. I would look into this! We just have to go to the school clinic and tell them that we are in the nursing program. I hope this is that case for you guys too!

I called my HS, and they tossed records after 5 years, so it's been too long. Thank goodness I can get some of the shots cheap through the college, and then they will take a notarized letter from a parent about the chicken pox. Just be sure to check out what your school requires!

Thanks to all who replied - you all helped me alot I now have many different avenues to try - before I was stuck. I have tried my HS first and they charge $10 to do the search and I have also went to my doctors to do the titers. So we will see where this leads to - if I have to do them all again I think I will try the health clinic.

Very Grateful - I Love this Forum :o):1luvu:
