Description
Where is your immunization or vaccination record? Where do you keep the vaccination records for your children? Does your doctor have a copy? Do you keep paper copies in your safe? Do you carry your immunization card in your purse or wallet? Or do you even have an up-to-date vaccination record?
I designed the Immunization Record Template so that you can keep an electronic record of your immunizations for yourself and each of your children, store it with other important documents on your computer, and print it whenever you need to. This way, you don't have to worry about losing your one-and-only copy. You can also consolidate your entire immunization/vaccination history onto a single form.
For new children, you may want to download an Immunization Schedule from cdc.gov (the Center for Disease Control and Prevention). Most vaccines given to children require multiple doses, so the immunization schedule makes it easy to see when the different vaccines are normally given.
TIP! Whenever you update your electronic immunization record, print a paper copy and store it with your other important papers. Electronic files are convenient, but they can also get lost or deleted, so make sure you keep electronic as well as paper copies.
Immunization Schedules for Infants and Young Children
Immunizations or Vaccinations play a big role in any infant’s life. Between birth and one year, a baby will receive vaccines for around 10 different diseases if the recommendations given by the Department of Health are followed. Your pediatrician or family doctor should help you schedule the necessary shots during your child's first two years, but you need to ensure that these records are kept, especially if you move or switch pediatricians.
Besides keeping your child healthy, most schools will not allow a child to enroll unless they are caught up on their vaccines. There is no national database that keeps track of the vaccines your child has received, and doctors rarely keep records of vaccinations given longer than 2 years. It is important that every parent follow their own Immunization Schedule and stay up to date with their child's vaccines.
For authoritative information on immunizations and vaccinations, see the Vaccines & Immunizations on the cdc.gov website (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention). Check out their Immunization Schedules.
