Clark County Health Department's Immunization Clinics
Monday, February 10th, 2020 -- 12:31 PM
-Immunizations, also called vaccinations, are one of the greatest achievements in public health. Vaccines prevent disease in people who receive them.Additionally, if enough people in the community are vaccinated, the entire community can be protected because there is little opportunity for an outbreak to occur. Vaccinations are the best way to prevent diseases and the serious effects they can cause. The Clark County Health Department holds an immunization clinic once a month at the Clark County Rehabilitation and Living Center in Owen on the 2nd Wednesday of every month from 3:00-4:00PM in the Multi-Purpose Room/Gym. The next clinic is this Wednesday, February 12th. The remaining clinics for this year are March 11, April 8, May 13, June 10, July 8, August 12, September 9, October 14, November 11, and December 9. All children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent/guardian. Your child may qualify to receive vaccines at no charge, but donations are welcome.
If your child is under the age of 19 and meets at least one of the following eligibility criteria, they can receive vaccines at no charge. They are Medicaid, Badgercare, eligible: either Medicaid-eligible and Medicaid-enrolled; they are uninsured: they have no health insurance; they are American Indian or Alaska Native: as defined by the Indian Health Care Improvement Act; and they are under insured: they have health insurance, but the coverage does not include vaccines, or only covers selected vaccines. They are only eligible to receive vaccines through a Federal Qualified Health Center, or a Rural Health Clinic.
