Does Anybody Know...

1. Official links that would show:
   1. the current newborn screening tests required by law in North Carolina AND
   2. the current newborn/infant/child immunization schedule required by law in North Carolina.
   Thank you for your help!:kiss (Been up nearly all night writing lectures...)

   Does the State of NC have a website? If their health dept. is linked through the website, it will probably have the info you need on immunizations, at least.
   
   You might also check with www.cdc.gov. their listing of required immunizations is utilized by most states.

   I know that hearing screenings are also required. I think the info for them can be found at the link in my previous post if you go to the home page and search.
   
   Good luck!
