The Pulaski Health Department will be offering parents an opportunity to catch up on any immunizations their children may need and to get the needed immunizations for the start of the 2022-23 school year that are required. It is important that parents get these immunizations early and not wait until the start of school because then there can be delays in getting them.

The first vaccine clinic will be held Friday, April 29, from 2-7 p.m. at the Pulaski County Health Department located at 170 4th Street N.W. in Pulaski. This clinic will be by appointment only and the deadline to register for the clinic is Friday, April 15, in order to allow time for ordering and shipping the needed vaccines.

A second clinic is scheduled for Saturday, May 14, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. will take place at the same location. The registration deadline for that clinic is Friday, April 29. Again, these clinics are by appointment only.

Parents or guardians will need to bring insurance information and vaccine records to the appointment with them. The Health Department will file with insurance for those patients that are insured. For individuals who do not have health insurance coverage, the department has specially funded vaccines to ensure that uninsured or underinsured children receive all required vaccinations.

Parents may also contact the Health Department directly at 540-440-2188 to schedule an appointment.
