1. What nursing services can I get from the Health Department?

Immunizations

TB testing and Referral

Health Screenings

Cholesterol Testing

Blood Lead Testing for children six and under

All School-age Required Vaccine

Blood Pressure Checks

Most vaccinations are available, and are free to Framingham residents

Framingham residents who require TB testing for employment must pay a $15 fee

2. Do I need an appointment for vaccinations?

No, Framingham residents, children and adults, may come to our clinics, which are Monday - Friday 8:30 am to 9:30 am and 4:00 pm to 4:45 pm. A nurse is also available on Monday evening from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm. If these are for a person under 18 years of age, they need a vaccine request form from the school, and must be accompanied by a parent or relative. If you are not a resident of the town, you would need a doctor’s order, and fees would be involved.

3. Can I get a copy of my immunization record?

It will be possible if you had the immunizations in this department. You will need to make your request (in writing) in person at our office due to new Federal Information laws (HIPPA).

4. Can I speak to the nurse?

Yes. The best time to reach the nurse is Monday through Friday from 8:30 - 9:30 am. You can also leave a confidential message on the nurse's telephone line. Please leave a detailed message and a number where you can be reached.
