Tips for Locating Old Immunization Records
Immunizations are frequently needed for entry into college or other post-high school training, future employment or international travel. At this time, there is no national data base to maintain this information. If you are unable to obtain a copy of your immunizations , you may have to repeat vaccine doses or have blood drawn to test for immunity for certain diseases.
Some places to check for record:
- Previous healthcare providers including public health departments
- Your home
- Schools or other 4 year colleges
- Previous employers including the military
