Yakima Public Health

 

The Yakima Health District’s Child Immunization Program works with providers to teach proper vaccine storage and administrations, along with providing consultation to providers’ offices throughout the county. The Yakima Health District does not provide immunization directly to patients, but does distribute some vaccines to providers in our community.

If your child was vaccinated at the Health District before our clinic closed and you are seeking their immunization records, please download the Request for Medical Records Search form and mail it in with the appropriate fee or bring it to the Health District and we will search for your records. (This may take up to 2 weeks to complete.)

The three main education area that the immunization program focuses on are vaccine storage, adminstration, and keeping children’s vaccinations up-to-date.
