Today’s a great day to schedule your child’s immunizations!
The State of Virginia requires that children must be up-to-date on physicals and immunizations for school and for learning virtually. The Richmond and Henrico Health Districts and their partners have developed materials to assist parents in making informed choices about immunization. You can protect your child from preventable diseases by making sure they get their immunizations on time.
Please scan and email your child’s immunization record to our encrypted inbox prior to your appointment:
- For Richmond City: [email protected]
- For Henrico County: [email protected]
Bring your child’s immunization records to the appointment.
Please note that while the Richmond and Henrico Health Districts do not charge for immunizations, some of our partners may. Additionally, most pediatricians will perform an exam which could add an additional cost. For more information, visit vdh.virginia.gov/richmond-city/childhood-immunization/.
