Vaccination Catch-Up Clinics

Vaccination clinics are being offered at Public Health offices at 99 Regina Street South, Waterloo and 99 Beechwood Road, Cambridge.

Before you make your appointment

Before booking an appointment, parents, caregivers or students should update their immunization records. It is important to ensure that all vaccinations your child received from your health care provider or out of province have been reported to Public Health.

Report immunization records

A student’s Health Card number is needed to view their immunization record. If you do not have a health card, you can use the Ontario Immunization Identification (OIID) usually found on a child’s report card.
