New School Nurse/ Immunizations

Specialties School

Published

New School Nurse here.

So I'm receiving all the new kids immunization cards and it's so overwhelming, I have the immunization schedule and all but it still seems so hard. What if I miss something and the child is not complient with all vaccines.

Any help on who to contact or who can help me get everything in order and know what vaccines each child should have.

Help!!!!

I'm in texas

I know this sounds a bit extreme. But, when I was a brand new school nurse many moons ago, I was completely clueless. But, absolutely wanted to make sure that all the records were good to go. I called the State and told them that I wanted to make sure from the get-go that the immunizations were all up to date. They actually had the guy who does Immunization audits to come and look at all of them for me.

what state are you in?
