According to the State Health Department, student immunization helps prevent serious illness and promotes a healthy school year. Proof of immunization (or an exemption) is required for the 2022-2023 school year.
Large numbers of parents wait to schedule well-check and vaccination appointments until the Summer. If you schedule now it will ensure your student is ready to go in the Fall.
Along with your family physician, Salt Lake County Health Department offers immunizations at many locations. Call 385-468-SHOT (7468) to schedule an appointment at a location near you.
NEW THIS YEAR: The State of Utah is introducing their new DOCKET mobile app, a tool that families can use to view their personal immunization records through the state and see what shots, if any, are needed. Go to your phone’s app store to download and begin using this resource or click here for installation instructions and more information: Click here to read more information about DOCKET.
