Immunizations

Not all disease can be prevented, but many can. The following vaccinations are offered at the WCHD:

• DTaP and TDaP
• MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella)
• MMRV (combination of MMR and Chickenpox)
• Meningitis
• Polio
• Chickenpox
• Hepatits B
• Haemophylus Influenza Type B
• Gardasil (HVP vaccine)
• Hepatitis A
• Rota-Teq
• Tetanus

Vaccines for these diseases are also required for entry into Kindergarten, and Licensed Day Care or Preschool. The ages for vaccination are recommended. If a vaccine is not received at the recommended age it should be given as a “catch-up” vaccine at any next scheduled appointment. Vaccines may not be given earlier than the recommended age.
