Adult Immunizations

Florida Department of Health in Volusia County Immunizations

Three women smilingImmunizations are not just for children. Adults also need immunizations to help protect them against certain diseases. Sometimes immunizations are needed to "boost" protection that may be wearing off, or to make up for immunizations that were not given during childhood. Some immunizations are needed only after a person reaches adulthood.

Immunizations requirements for adults depend upon age, health status, lifestyle and occupation. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has a schedule of vaccines based on these criteria.

Appointments are required for immunizations. To schedule an appointment please call (386) 274-0509.

Every visit by an adult to a healthcare provider should be an opportunity to review and update immunization status. Healthcare providers and individuals should maintain detailed records about each person's vaccination history.  Learn more at the Power to Protect.
