Which immunizations (shots) are recommended at which age?

Immunizations (shots) can keep children and youth from getting sick in the future. Talk with the child’s Primary Care Provider (PCP) about the immunizations that are needed and when they are needed. You should use an immunization schedule and have the schedule updated when you visit the child’s doctor. For more information on vaccines and to review recommended immunization schedules, visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention at www.cdc.gov/vaccines/schedules/ or call Mercy Care DCS CHP Member Services at 602-212-4983 or 1-833-711-0776 (TTY/TDD 711).
