Keeping Kids Healthy With Preventive Vaccinations

We contact families when their child is due for recommended vaccines. These reminders encourage timely vaccinations and support preventive care.

Why it Matters

Your recommendation can make a difference. A strong provider recommendation is one of the most important factors in helping families stay current on their child’s vaccines.

What This Looks Like

How You Can Help

• Review vaccination status during wellness, sickness, sports physical, and follow-up visits.
• Use reminder and recall tools to identify children who are due or overdue for vaccines.
• Offer a clear recommendation, such as: “Your child is due for vaccines today, and we can take care of them during this visit.”
• Help families schedule nurse visits or follow-up appointments when needed.
• Document vaccines and update vaccination records after they’re given.
