Immunisation schedule
In Jersey, we follow the UK childhood immunisation schedule. The aim of this is to provide early protection against vaccine-preventable diseases that are most dangerous in the very young.
The vaccine programme begins when baby is 8 weeks old.
It is important to keep to the immunisation schedule as delays between the vaccines can leave baby unprotected.
How will I know when to get my child's vaccine?
The Child Health Department will write to you before each immunisation is due with an appointment.
Please inform of us of any change in address so we can update our records and the Child Health Department.
If you do not receive a reminder from the Child Health Department before the next immunisations are due, please call us on 01534 730541 to make an appointment.
Please be aware there has to be a minimum of 4 weeks between each set of vaccinations.
Child immunisation clinic
Indigo Medical offers a child immunisation clinic each week. These are free of charge.
All the Immunisations require your consent. Should a grandparent or nanny bring your child for immunisations then we ask you to provide a brief letter of consent.
