Yes the doctor does have a place of practice in the city however the behaviors of these children puts them and public at risk for injury especially in a busy place. Thus I would like to avoid having to bring them out to receive a vaccine that we can admininster in the school once we can get a hold of them. That is a great idea about checking with larger retailers I'll do that on Monday. Thanks!
Try moore medical - they can take the order from your school md to fill the order. here's a link:

Hi Everyone,
I work at a school for autistic children that has several group homes. Once a month we have the PCP for these children come to perform their annual physicals. This month I have two patients that the physician has ordered annual flu vaccines for and a varicella vaccine, we do not have a private pharmacy.
My dilemma is finding a pharmacy that will fill these and either deliver them to the school or allow us to pick them up. I have found pharmacies that at least have the flu vaccine in stock that I can pick up, but with the varicella vaccine I have had no luck finding it anywhere and the Mass. DPH will not receive a shipment until January.
These students are autistic and it is very difficult to bring them out to a separate doctor's appointment just to receive a vaccine. Any ideas where I can find varicella vaccines?
Thank you!!
