ELVPHD’s immunization program provides childhood
immunizations to VFC eligible children as well as for private pay and most
insurances. Immunizations are needed for
infants at ages 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, 12-15 months & 18 months. For
school-aged children, immunizations are needed prior to entry into kindergarten
(ages 4-6 years) and prior to entry into 7th grade (11-13
years).
Each child should be accompanied by a parent or legal
guardian. A current copy of the child’s
past immunization records are required at each visit. A proxy form is needed when a parent or legal
guardian is unable to attend the clinic with the child. All clinic forms may be obtained by visiting www.elvphd.org or calling the ELVPHD at (402)
529-2233. The Elkhorn Logan Valley
Public Health Department VFC Immunization Program is supported in part by
Federal Immunization Program Funds awarded to ELVPHD by the Nebraska Department
of Health and Human Services.
Adult vaccine including Tdap, Influenza, MMR, Pneumovax, TB
testing, and Hepatitis are also available by appointment. Public
health aims to make people and communities healthy and safe. In doing so,
