Routine Immunizations

The Lake County General Health District conducts Immunization clinics in the community. LCGHD strives to ensure all residents have access to all required and recommended immunizations for children, adolescents, and adults. All clinics are by appointment only. Currently, immunization clinics are for those who are not insured, underinsured, or covered by Medicaid. Please see the flyer below for upcoming clinics. More clinic dates will be scheduled soon. If you have questions regarding what vaccines your child or adolescent may need, please call (440) 350-2543 and ask to speak with our nursing department.

For Child and Adolescent clinics, a parent or legal guardian must accompany all minors.

COVID-19 Vaccinations

LCGHD also offers COVID-19 vaccinations upon request to underinsured and uninsured individuals by way of the Ohio Department of Health Get Vaccinated Ohio Grant. If you would like a COVID vaccine and have insurance, we encourage you to contact your primary care physician and/or your local pharmacy for the updated COVID vaccine.
