Immunizations

Adult immunizations

The Health Department makes every effort to provide residents with opportunities to receive influenza and pneumonia vaccination. Each year, the Health Department sponsors a number of clinic opportunities for adults.

We also provide Tdap vaccinations for parents and caregivers of children under the age of 12 months under the State Cocooning Program to prevent whooping cough. Call for an appointment 203-481-4233.

Residents with disabilities unable to be vaccinated at a physician's office or clinic can be vaccinated by scheduling a home visit with the Public Health Nurse.

Children's immunization

The East Shore District Health Department does not provide children’s immunizations. We do refer children to the Hill Health Center. Children without health insurance or who are underinsured can schedule an appointment to receive the vaccines provided by the State Immunization Program.

Travel immunization and prophylaxis

Travel immunization clinics are offered every other Thursday by appointment at the Health Department, 14 Business Park Drive, Branford, CT
