By Virginia State Law, all students entering the 6th, 7th or 8th grades in September 2008 are required to have received a tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis (Tdap) booster shot if at least five (5) years have passed since receiving a tetanus containing vaccine or they do not have a medical or religious exemption. A number of medical providers have this vaccine. Students will not be able to start school if they have not met this requirement. Parents should call their child's physician or clinic for more information.
The Henrico Health Department is providing the Tdap booster shot at no charge for all students entering 6th, 7th or 8th grades in September 2008. It is necessary to bring the child's record of any immunizations received previously. Parents/guardians/or the adult coming with the child will be able to sign the necessary consent form.
To schedule your child for needed vaccines through our Multi-Service Clinics, please call one of our two office locations nearest your home.
The West Office is located off Parham Road at 8600 Dixon Powers Drive in the Human Services Building. To schedule an appointment at this location, or to obtain information, please call 804-501-4651.
The East Office is located at 3810 Nine Mile Road in the Glen Echo Building. For information or to schedule an imunization appointment at this office, please phone 804-652-3190.
