Back-to-School Community Immunization Events

Le Bonheur Children’s, UTHSC, Shelby County Health Department, Memphis Shelby County Schools, Latino Memphis, St. Jude and others are hosting several community immunization events to help kids get caught up on their required school vaccines.

The dates for the immunization events are July 29, Aug. 5 and Sept. 30.  They will again be held at the Teaching and Learning Academy at Union and Hollywood.  They’ve agreed to let our clinical staff participate in the administering of the vaccines, which will help our flow tremendously.

For our clinic staff who administer shots, required training one of these dates: July 19 OR July 26  from 2- 4 p.m. at 600 Jefferson. We need a pool of 20 people (nurses, pharmacists, residents, medical students, attendings) who are trained to administer shots at one or more of the three immunization events. 

Sign up here to volunteer and please help us spread the word about the need for volunteers!
