Going to health visits helps to make sure you stay healthy and that you have the vaccines needed to prevent sicknesses. If you or your child are due for a health visit, we urge you to call your Primary Care Physician (PCP). The PCP is the doctor, nurse practitioner or physician’s assistant who is in charge of your health care. These visits may also involve a physical exam and checking for health problems.

The PCP can tell you if your child needs vaccines to prevent serious sickness. Vaccines also help protect the health of our community, especially people who cannot get them. People 12 and over are eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine. The flu shot is recommended for people 6 months and older.
