As fall nears closer, it’s time to think about keeping your family healthy—especially with the back to school sickies and the colder months ahead. One important way to protect your children is by staying up to date on their immunizations. The Snohomish County Health Department is here to help parents navigate the process with resources available for childhood vaccines.
Free Vaccines for All Kids Under 19
Through the Washington State Childhood Vaccine Program, all children under the age of 19 can receive recommended vaccines at no cost. While healthcare providers may charge an office visit or administration fee, the vaccines themselves are provided free of charge. No child who is an established patient will be refused a vaccine, even if they are unable to pay these fees. This ensures that every child has access to the care they need, regardless of financial circumstances.
Stay on Schedule with Recommended Immunizations
Keeping track of immunizations can feel overwhelming, but the Snohomish County Health Department makes it easy with a recommended vaccine schedule. This schedule helps you know which vaccines your child should receive and when they should get them. You can download the guide directly from their website and use it as a reference throughout the year.
Vaccinations are a key part of keeping your kids healthy during the fall and winter. By ensuring they’re up to date on their shots, you’re helping protect them—and those around them—from preventable diseases.
