Back-to-School Vaccinations

For back-to-school vaccines, our pharmacy staff will be vaccinating students aged five and older at our three pharmacy locations: Wells Ave. Health Center, Sparks Health Center, and Nell J. Redfield Health Center in Sun Valley.

Additionally, we will host various vaccine clinics at Washoe County School District schools this summer. We highly encourage making appointments online. Please note that a parent or legal guardian must be present for a child to receive their vaccine(s) at both our health centers and vaccine clinics.

If your child is under the age of four or you need to schedule a wellness check with a medical provider, please register online or call (775) 329-6300.

Per Nevada state law, unless excused because of religious belief or medical condition, students must submit proof of immunity to tetanus, diphtheria (Td or Tdap), measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) before enrolling in child care, school and a university. Those younger than 23 and enrolled as a freshman must also submit proof of immunity against meningitis. Vaccination with at least one dose of a quadrivalent meningococcal conjugate vaccine (MenACWY) on or after age 16 will satisfy this requirement.
