Back to School Immunizations 

We are now accepting appointments for our Back to School Clinics here at the Health Department.  For appointments please call 301-600-3342. 

The best place to get back to school immunizations is at your child’s medical home or pediatrician. The Health Department’s goal is to ensure that all children are fully vaccinated and we will be offering childhood immunizations for all children in need of vaccines during these scheduled clinics.

For Children Through 18 Years of Age

The Health Department provides FREE immunizations for uninsured or underinsured children. 

The Health Department does not bill insurance companies for vaccinations. If your child has health insurance, call your child’s health care provider to schedule your child’s vaccinations.

For information about the immunizations provided, please read:

1. *RECOMMENDED*2021 CDC and American Academy of Pediatrics Recommended Immunization Schedule for Children and Adolescents Aged 18 Years or Younger
2. Maryland School Year 2021- 2022 Vaccine Requirements For Children Enrolled in Preschool Programs and in Schools

How can I get vaccinated?

Get Your Vaccination Record with MyIR

Clients can now access their individual and/or child's ImmuNet records directly through MyIR, which stands for "My Immunization Record". MyIR is a portal that allows you to access your or your child's official vaccination records online. Just like ImmuNet, the portal is confidential, secure, and HIPAA compliant.

To access your or your child's official vaccination record, visit the portal and register today by clicking the button below:

MyIR will need the following information for registration and to match your records in ImmuNet:

• First and Last Name
• Date of birth
• Gender
• Email
• Address
• Telephone number (required for authentication)

 Learn how to register at MyIR with this User Guide.

Keep these MyIR brochures handy for your reference, or complete the Brochure Request form (here) to have brochures mailed to you.

For more information about MyIR, go here.

If you have trouble registering and/or are not able to access your records through MyIR, it may be due to one or more of these reasons:

• MyIR/ImmuNet does not have your vaccination record. Reporting vaccination records to ImmuNet is mandatory in Maryland as of October 2019. Please contact your doctor or school to get vaccination records that are not in MyIR/ImmuNet.
• Your information (e.g. name, date of birth, phone number and/or address) may be different or is not up to date in ImmuNet (old info, incorrect spelling or if your name has changed). Please complete the Record Request form when prompted to do so in MyIR. You must self-identify by checking the acknowledgement statement (under penalty of perjury) before submitting the form.
  • Parents/Guardians: Each time your child gets vaccinated, ask your child’s provider to update/confirm the parent/guardian information in their system to send to ImmuNet.
• You have opted out of ImmuNet and chose not to share your or your child’s vaccination record with providers in ImmuNet. Please see the section below if you wish to rescind your opt-out.

If you believe the vaccination records you received from MyIR/ImmuNet is incorrect, please contact your healthcare provider to update the vaccination information.
