    CONSENT FOR SERVICES: I understand and consent to immunization services administered by the Elkhart County Health Department in the school setting. I consent to all CDC ACIP (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices) recommended vaccines based on client’s age and immunization history provided by the school and CHIRP (Children and Hoosiers Immunization Registry Program) unless specifically declined on the attached refusal form. ACIP recommended vaccines may include DTaP/Tdap, Polio (IPV), Hepatitis B, MMR (measles, mumps, rubella), Varicella, Hepatitis A, Meningococcal ACWY, Meningococcal B, Human Papillomavirus, Influenza, COVID-19. I also consent to management of a medication reaction which may include but is not limited to diphenhydramine and/or epinephrine should my child have an immediate reaction.

     

    I wish to DECLINE the following CDC ACIP recommended vaccines:

    I have read the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) Vaccine Information Statements explaining the vaccine(s) and the disease(s) they prevent. I have had the opportunity to discuss these with a health care professional who answered all my questions regarding the recommended vaccine(s).

    I understand the following:

    - The purpose of and the need for the recommended vaccine(s)

    -The risks and benefits of the recommended vaccine(s)

    - If I/my child do(es) not receive the vaccine(s), the consequences may include:

    - contracting the illness the vaccine should prevent

    - transmitting the disease to others

    - the need for me/my child to stay out of work, daycare or school during disease outbreaks

    - The Elkhart County Health Department, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the CDC have all strongly recommended that the vaccine(s) be given

    Nevertheless, I have decided to decline the vaccine(s) recommended for my/my child, as indicated above, by checking the appropriate box under the column titled "Declined."

    I know that failure to follow the recommendations about vaccination may endanger the health or life of me/my child and others that I/my child might come in contact with.

    I know that I may re-address this issue with my health care provider and/or the Elkhart County Health Department and that I may change my mind and accept vaccination for me/my child anytime in the future.
