ImmunizationsChecking for required immunizations
Use the California Immunization HandbookPage 1, steps in briefPages 2-8, basic procedure and determining if
requirements are met
11
Immunizations Page 7&8, Exemptions
“Exemptions” can be medical (Physician’s note, temporary or permanent) or personal beliefs.
Must keep a list in case of an outbreak requiring exclusions
Can be all or just some immunizations. Should not be for convenience (but I fear it is done).
Emphasize importance for their child’s safety and the safety of all students, economic implications, possible long term exclusion (handout).
Parent signs on back (be sure it is in the correct spot). Specify which immunizations if not all.
Still fill out CSIR if child does have some immunizations.
12
ImmunizationsConditional Admissions
Page 9-11, “conditional” admission. Can get
complicated, ask your school nurseRequires ongoing follow-upNotices of Required Immunizations with
clinic schedulePages 12-14, system for follow-up on conditional
admissions. It can be done…Letters home. Once you let them in, it’s
hard to get results.No longer need to do 7th grade assessment

ImmunizationsPage 15, recordsPage 16 & C-66, preparing HS students for

ImmunizationsReviewing CSIR or immunization record of
incoming studentsLet school nurses know about new studentsSchool nurse can access PHD
Immunization Registry if parent cannot find or access record (it may be there). She can also do verification of disease for chickenpox.
Pages B 50&51, Windows for Immunizations (here we go!)
15
ImmunizationsKindergarten
When parent picks up the K Registration Packet, remind her/him that their child will probably need four year shots and it should be done before the child is registered and the record needs to accompany the registration material. Information is in packet.
When parent brings in registration packet, an immunization record should be with it
Check the record while the parent is there. If immunizations are missing, give them a completed Required Immunizations letter and a clinic schedule.
16
ImmunizationsKindergarten
Emphasize that the child is not officially registered until immunizations are completed. If you allow the child to attend school, most likely you will have a long, time-consuming process of bringing the child into compliance.
Work with your administrator & school nurse
17
ImmunizationsKindergarten
You have an additional step of entering identifying information (do not need address) and the immunizations on to the CSIR. Enter M/D/Y
Then use the windowImmunization Waiver (Exemption)on the back
of the CSIRUpdate immunization schedule in K Packet in
May (on PHD’s website)Forms and letters will be on website
18
ImmunizationsKindergarten
Report of Kindergarten Immunizations due to state October 15th, so not much time to deal with noncompliant students (read “parents”). State no longer sends you a hardcopy.
