  1. I have been accepted into nursing school and start this fall. I've run into a little trouble with getting one of my entrance requirements done, though. I can't for the life of me find someone who will give me a second MMR vaccine or titer! My childhood vaccination records are long gone, so I thought it would be easier to just get the vaccines done over again. I went to my local health department and received the first MMR vaccine no problem. When I went back to get my second one, I was told that their protocol said that they could only give an adult a second MMR vaccine if they were presenting symptoms. Ok.. no big deal. They wouldn't give me the varicella vaccine either and I had a titer done for that showing my immunity, which was simple enough. I figured I could just go back to the same place I had that titer done for my MMR. Well, I went.. but when I got there, apparently the phlebotomist told the MA that they wouldn't do a titer because if they were ever audited, they would get in trouble...? I don't understand why I'm having such a hard time getting this one little requirement done! My university has a clinic that supposedly does MMR vaccines, but they only accept students who are enrolled in the current semester. So now I don't know where I'm supposed to go.. do I just call around to random offices and try to find one that's not worried about getting audited or what?? If it's against protocol for nurses to give a second MMR, why is it even listed as one of my options? And why would a lab get in trouble if audited for doing a MMR titer for a nursing student?
