As required by 470 IAC 3-4.1-12, all licensed child care centers in Indiana must submit immunization reports to the Indiana State Department of Health (ISDH) on an annual basis. The data from the 2003-2004 daycare facility immunization assessment is summarized in this report. Data was submitted for children in daycare centers between the ages of 15 to 23 months and 2 to 5 years.
It is of utmost importance that upon enrollment, each facility inform
parents as to which vaccines are required and give them a reasonable time
frame for bringing their child(ren) “up-to-date” even though
assessments are required only once per year. To be considered complete,
a child must have age-appropriately received vaccines for diphtheria, tetanus,
pertussis, polio, measles, mumps, rubella, haemophilus influenzae type
b, pneumococcus and chickenpox. Although immunization against hepatitis
b is not required for enrollment in child care facilities in Indiana, coverage
levels for this vaccine was reported and is shown in the Immunization Status
Report.
