The Florida Department of Health in Miami-Dade County’s Immunization Program is urging parents to check their children’s immunization record to see if they are due for a vaccine.
Children entering kindergarten and seventh grade are normally due for a vaccine and need to meet the requirements for school entry. If your child is due for a vaccine, visit your child’s healthcare provider or one of the Department of Health’s clinics.
The department provides free back-to-school immunizations to children between ages two months through 18 years.
Call 786-845-0550 to schedule an appointment 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday for immunization or for more information.
