Did you know you need vaccines throughout your life? Even if you were fully vaccinated as a child, the protection from some vaccines can wear off over time. Your needs also change as you age - including new recommendations for the shingles and RSV vaccine for adults 50 years of age and older.

ACCHD makes staying up-to-date with immunizations easy. Our team administers vaccines Monday-Thursday from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. You can also visit our website for the full recommended schedule for adult vaccines, https://www.acchd.us/documents/adults-schedule-easy-read.pdf.

Adults need vaccines, too.

We all need protection from the serious, and sometimes deadly, diseases that vaccines can prevent - and even more so when you have certain chronic conditions such as asthma, diabetes, or heart disease. Protect yourself - get vaccinated.

ACCHD makes staying up-to-date with immunizations easy. Our team administers vaccines Monday-Thursday from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Cost is $25 for adults. For children, it's $10 for one shot or $20 for two or more. Cash, Medicaid and CHIP are accepted.
