Public Health Nursing

    The Vineland Health Department works to control the spread of contagious diseases in Vineland through  education, counseling, screening and immunizations.
  • Contagious Diseases
        Certain infectious diseases such as salmonella, measles, shigella and others must be reported to the        Vineland Health Department. Upon receipt of such reports, Public Health Nursing staff investigates the case        or cases in order to control the spread of the disease in the community. To report an infectious disease, or        if you have any questions about communicable diseases call 856-794-4261.
  • Adult Flu Shots

All of our public clinics have been held. The Health Department has no plans, at this time, for any additional public clinics this year. Please check back in September, 2008 for more information.

      Every Fall, Vineland Health Department offers flu shots to all Vineland residents, with special emphasis to the
      high risk populations:

    • Children aged 6-59 months
    • Pregnant women
    • People 50 years of age and older, and
    • People of any age with certain chronic medical conditions
    • People who live in nursing homes and other long term care facilities
    • Household contacts of persons at high risk for complications from the flu
    • Household contacts and out of home caregivers of children less than 6 months of age (these children are too young to be vaccinated)

    • Healthcare workers

The flu shots are FREE for people with Traditional Medicare, Traditional Medicaid or Managed Medicaid coverage. For all other's there is a small fee.

  • Influenza Vaccine

  • Immunizations

      Immunizations are essential to protect children from many devastating diseases. But adults also need       immunizations—the NJ Department of Health reports that over 40,000 adults die each year from diseases for       which an immunization is available. Take a look at the following immunization schedule and make sure every       member of your family gets all needed immunizations.
