SAN JUAN COUNTY, WA. July 27, 2026 – San Juan County Health & Community Services (HCS) is making it easier for families to get their children up to date on required vaccines before next school year starts. This August, HCS is holding immunization clinics on Lopez, Orcas, and San Juan Islands. See our back-to-school clinic dates and details below!
Immunizations are a safe and proven way to prevent serious illnesses like measles, mumps, and whooping cough. They also help keep classrooms open and learning on track. For most schools, up-to-date immunization records are required before classes start. This is a great time to ensure your child is ready to start the school year!
You can check your child’s immunization records at MyIRMobile – MyIR Mobile, with your child’s healthcare provider, or at your local public health office. For a full list of recommended vaccines by age, visit the Washington State Department of Health’s website. If you have any questions about immunizations, our public health nurses are happy to answer them! Call us at 360-378-4474 and ask to speak with one of our nurses. You can also email our Immunizations Lead Nurse at nicoleg@sanjuancountywa.gov.
