The Immunizations tab indicates a student's current level of immunization compliance, based on state requirements and his/her documented doses of a vaccine.

This page contains information on using the Immunizations tool to track student immunization records. The vaccination logic used to determine compliance displayed on this screen is based on state-specific immunization rules managed in the Vaccines tool.

Health Immunizations

Vaccinations

Vaccine compliance is based on federal and state requirements. Most often, these rules are attached to the student’s year of enrollment and age. Each state has different requirements for students’ immunizations. This information is built into the product and is based on the student’s age and year of enrollment.

Vaccines that are considered non-compliant are automatically expanded, allowing users to add these dates of vaccinations.

Non-Compliant Vaccines

Vaccine entry requires a date of when the student was vaccinated, or a selection of a health waiver option and a date of when that waiver was given and, if available, a date of when the waiver expires.

Waivers can be entered for any vaccination required for a student. In most states, parents/guardians must fill out and sign a form and return that form to the district health office. Waiver types are limited to the following: 

  • Medical
  • Conscientious/Religious Objection
  • Lab Confirmation of the disease.

Waiver types are created in the Vaccine Exemptions tool.
