| Overseas Travel |
| Immunizations |
| Are you planning to travel outside the United States for work or pleasure? The health department offers overseas travel clinics each week to ensure you receive the required and recommended vaccinations that you need to travel.
All of our vaccines are given at cost. A small consultation fee and administration fee will be charged.* Our nurses will prepare a customized informational packet for you and counsel you on what vaccines you will need. Our overseas travel clinics are scheduled by appointment. You will need to schedule an appointment 2- 4 weeks in advance of travel to make certain you are protected before you reach your destination. |
| Occupational |
| Immunizations |
| Are you or your employees at risk? The health department offers an occupational immunization program for employers. Based upon Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendations, we will vaccinate your employees against the diseases they may be exposed to on-the-job.
This in turn, decreases your risk as an employer. If we are a participating provider with your insurance carrier, we can bill those vaccines and you only pay the balance.* If we are not a provider, we will simply bill you once per month for vaccinations received by your employees. All of our vaccines are given at cost. Only an administration fee will be charged. |
| Routine Immunizations |
|
We schedule routine immunizations by appointment and conduct several clinics each week. The health department administers vaccinations on a walk-in basis as space allows. KCH holds special immunization clinics for college-bound students each summer and for back-to-school students in the fall. |
| Influenza Immunizations |
| Each year, new strains of influenza emerge. That is why you need vaccinated each and every year! The health department holds flu clinics October through December each year and gives about 15,000 shots to protect the citizens of our county.
You can walk-in to one of our daily clinics Monday though Friday at our Lee Street location, or you can schedule a special clinic at your office for all employees to attend. This can decrease sick leave due to the flu! The health department accepts Medicare as well as most private fee-for-service plans. To schedule a clinic for your office, please call our office in September to reserve your spot. |
