Back to School Made Easier

As the school year begins, student class assignments, curriculum choices, and shifting staff may be just a few of the things on your to-do list.

Another hurdle is ensuring that all enrolled students have their state-required and optional Student Vaccinations and immunizations. Safe school enrollment in California involves a series of vaccinations meant to curb the incidence of communicable illnesses. However, it might be difficult for many families to arrange for the necessary vaccinations in time for the start of school. To alleviate this concern and get everyone in class, Veritas Healthcare can come to your school to provide Los Angeles Student Vaccinations to new or returning students in preparation for the start of the school year. Parents will be happy for the easy access, and your staff will be happy when each student starts the year with one more thing checked off their list.

Why are vaccines important?

Vaccines are a safe, effective, and proven way to prevent serious childhood illness and keep outbreaks from popping up in the community. Diseases that are often deadly otherwise can be totally avoided with a simple vaccination. Up-to-date vaccines like the flu shot also help keep your students in class and miss fewer school days due to unexpected illnesses.

Which vaccinations are required for students in California?

In order to attend both public and private elementary and secondary schools in California, TK-12 students are required by law to have specific vaccines. Therefore, every school must ensure that all students comply with the immunization mandate, keep accurate records of their students' vaccination status, and file the necessary reports. According to the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), the following Student Vaccinations are required:

Diphtheria, Tetanus, and Pertussis (DTaP, DTP, Tdap, or Td) – Five doses (exceptions exist for different scenarios)
Four doses of polio vaccine (OPV or IPV)
Three doses of hepatitis B
Mumps, rubella, and measles (MMR) — two doses (Both given on or after the first birthday)
Two doses of varicella (chickenpox)

Sports Physicals

Prior to competing in strenuous sports, it’s important for students to be evaluated and tested for their safety. Medical history can also be reviewed to be certain that a student is healthy enough to play.

Vision and Hearing Screening

Vision and hearing tests can be critical to ensure that students are able to absorb information in class. These tests are sometimes performed by a student's primary healthcare provider, but if they are not receiving regular screenings, we help fill the gap. It is worth noting that schools are required to do this screening and testing for specific grades. Vision screening can be done at kindergarten, first grade, second grade, fifth grade, and eighth grade. Screening for hearing is mandatory for kindergarten or first grade, and then for second grade, fifth grade, eighth grade, and then tenth or eleventh grade, as well as when the student first enters school.
