Do your kids have all the right shots for school?

TODAY: 8 a.m. - 4 p.m. Walk-in Clinic at Tishomingo County Health Department for school immunizations

Posted

The Tishomingo County Health Department, located at 1508 Bettydale Drive, in Iuka, Mississippi, will hold a special walk-in immunization clinic for school registration on July 15, and July 29, 2022, from 8 a.m. until 4 p.m.

During this clinic, the health department staff will have additional nursing staff available to provide adolescent immunizations so that parents can complete the process quickly and efficiently. Parents should bring a copy of their child’s immunization record.

There are required vaccinations for first-time school entry in Mississippi as well as a requirement for 7th grade entry. Parents must provide the school with a Certificate of Immunization Compliance (Form 121) prior to school entry.

Form 121 can be obtained from your child’s immunization provider, but MSDH now offers a convenient way for parents to check their child’s immunizations record online and print out the required Form 121 or download the document to send to the school.

MyIR Mobile is an online portal that gives users access to their official state immunization records. MyIR Mobile allows users to not only see their own immunization records, but to also add family members to their profiles to see if their child is up-to-date or needs their next vaccination. If none are needed, a certified Form 121 can be downloaded or printed.

MyIR Mobile requires identity verification through a phone number or email address to keep records safe and secure. Only immunization records of Mississippi residents are accessible through this program. MyIR Mobile is available at www.MyIRMobile.com. 

You may check with your physician or county health department if you have questions about which immunizations your child will need. Childhood vaccinations are available at county health departments by appointment.
