NCCHS provides recommended infant immunizations to help protect your baby from serious diseases. Learn what vaccines your child needs and how to schedule an appointment. Infant Immunizations Vaccines are one of the safest and most effective ways to protect your baby from serious illnesses early in life. At Nemaha County Community Health Services (NCCHS), we follow the CDC’s recommended immunization schedule to ensure your child receives timely protection against diseases like whooping cough, measles, polio, and more. Our team is here to support you with trusted information, compassionate care, and answers to any questions you may have about vaccines. We know every family is different, and we’re committed to helping you make informed decisions that keep your child healthy and safe. You can schedule an immunization appointment by calling 785-284-2152. Not sure which vaccines your child is due for? Give us a call, and one of our nurses will be happy to help. RSV The RSV vaccine helps protect babies from serious illness caused by Respiratory Syncytial Virus, which can lead to trouble breathing, especially in infants and young children. It’s especially important for newborns, premature babies, and those with certain health conditions. Getting the vaccine—either mom during pregnancy or baby after birth—helps give your baby extra protection during RSV season. Learn More Rotavirus The rotavirus vaccine protects your baby from a common virus that causes severe diarrhea, vomiting, and dehydration. It’s given by mouth, not a shot, and is only available during the first few months of life. Getting your baby vaccinated helps prevent hospital visits and keeps them feeling their best. Learn More Haemophilus Influenzae Type B The Hib vaccine protects your baby from Haemophilus influenzae type b, a bacteria that can cause serious infections like meningitis, pneumonia, and blood infections. These illnesses can be life-threatening, especially for babies and young children. The Hib vaccine helps keep your baby safe during the most vulnerable years. Learn More Inactivated Polio The IPV vaccine protects your baby from polio, a virus that can cause paralysis and even death. Although polio is rare in the U.S., it still exists in other parts of the world and can spread. Vaccinating your baby with IPV keeps them protected and helps prevent the return of this dangerous disease. Learn More Influenza The flu vaccine protects your baby from influenza, which can cause high fever, cough, body aches, and serious complications like pneumonia. Babies under 5—especially under 2—are at higher risk of being hospitalized from the flu. Getting the flu shot every year helps keep your baby safe during flu season. Learn More Varicella The varicella vaccine protects your child from chickenpox, a common illness that causes an itchy rash and fever. While chickenpox is usually mild, it can sometimes lead to serious complications like infections or pneumonia. Getting the vaccine helps keep your child safe and prevents the spread of this contagious disease to others. Learn More Meningococcal The meningococcal vaccine protects your child from meningitis, a serious infection that can cause inflammation of the brain and spinal cord coverings. This infection can come on quickly and be life-threatening. Getting the vaccine helps keep your child safe by preventing this dangerous disease. Learn More Hepatitis B The Hepatitis B (Hep B) vaccine protects your baby from a serious liver infection that can be lifelong. Because Hep B can be passed from mom to baby during birth, the first dose is recommended within 24 hours after birth. Starting the vaccine series early helps protect your baby right from the beginning. Learn More Diphtheria, Tetanus, and acellular Pertussis (DTap) The DTaP vaccine protects your baby from three serious diseases: diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis (whooping cough). Whooping cough can be especially dangerous for infants, causing coughing fits, trouble breathing, and even hospitalization. Starting the DTaP series on time helps build strong protection early in life. Learn More Pneumococcal Conjugate The PCV20 vaccine protect your baby from pneumococcal disease, which can cause ear infections, pneumonia, meningitis, and blood infections. These illnesses can be very serious in young children, especially babies. Getting the pneumococcal vaccine helps build strong protection against these infections early in life. Learn More COVID 19 The COVID-19 vaccine helps protect your baby from getting seriously sick from the coronavirus. Even though most children have mild symptoms, some can get very sick or develop complications. Getting your baby vaccinated adds an extra layer of protection as they grow and explore the world around them. Learn More Measles, Mumps, and Rubella The MMR vaccine protects your child from three serious diseases: measles, mumps, and rubella. These illnesses can lead to complications like pneumonia, brain swelling, or birth defects if caught during pregnancy. The MMR vaccine is a safe and effective way to keep your child—and your community—healthy. Learn More Hepatitis A The Hepatitis A vaccine protects your child from a virus that affects the liver and can cause symptoms like fever, stomach pain, and jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes). Hepatitis A spreads through contaminated food, water, or close contact with an infected person. Vaccinating your child helps prevent illness and keeps them healthy. Learn More

Inmunizaciones en la Infancia A medida que tu hijo crece, las inmunizaciones rutinarias continúan jugando un papel vital en la protección de su salud. Entre los 19 meses y los 10 años, los niños reciben refuerzos importantes que fortalecen la inmunidad construida durante la infancia y brindan protección contra enfermedades como el sarampión, las paperas, la rubéola, la varicela, la polio y la tos ferina. Estas vacunas están programadas para ofrecer la mejor defensa durante los primeros años escolares—cuando los niños están en contacto cercano con otros y es más probable que se expongan a gérmenes. Mantenerse al día con el calendario de vacunación no solo ayuda a prevenir enfermedades graves, sino que también mantiene a tu hijo elegible para asistir a la escuela y participar en actividades. En NCCHS, facilitamos que mantengas a tu hijo al día. Nuestro equipo está aquí para responder tus preguntas, explicar el calendario de vacunación y asegurarse de que tu hijo esté protegido en cada paso del camino. Llama al 785-284-2152 para programar una cita o para saber qué inmunización necesita tu hijo. Las vacunas son una forma simple y poderosa de proteger a tu hijo—y a la comunidad—de enfermedades prevenibles. Difteria, Tétanos y Tos ferina acelular (DTaP) La vacuna DTaP protege a tu hijo contra tres enfermedades graves. La difteria puede causar problemas respiratorios, el tétanos provoca dolorosas contracciones musculares (trismo), y la tos ferina (pertussis) puede causar ataques de tos intensos y dificultad para respirar, especialmente en los bebés. Los refuerzos ayudan a mantener fuerte la protección de tu hijo a medida que crece. Aprende Más Sarampión, Paperas y Rubéola La vacuna MMR protege contra tres enfermedades contagiosas. El sarampión puede causar neumonía e inflamación cerebral, las paperas pueden provocar pérdida de la audición e inflamación del cerebro o de los órganos reproductivos, y la rubéola puede ser peligrosa para los bebés no nacidos. Dos dosis brindan una protección fuerte y duradera. Aprende Más Hepatitis A La hepatitis A es un virus que afecta el hígado y se transmite a través de alimentos o agua contaminados, o por contacto cercano con alguien que esté infectado. Puede causar fiebre, dolor de estómago, vómitos y coloración amarillenta de la piel (ictericia). Dos dosis de la vacuna brindan una protección fuerte y tranquilidad. Aprende Más COVID-19 COVID-19 puede afectar a niños de todas las edades y puede provocar enfermedades graves, síntomas a largo plazo o hospitalización. La vacuna contra COVID-19 ayuda a proteger a tu hijo al reducir el riesgo de enfermedad grave y de contagiar a otros. Mantenerse al día con las dosis recomendadas mantiene su protección fuerte a medida que el virus evoluciona. Aprende Más Polio (Vacuna Inactivada contra el Poliovirus - IPV) La polio es un virus que puede causar parálisis permanente o incluso la muerte. Aunque ha sido eliminada en los Estados Unidos, todavía existe en algunas partes del mundo. La vacuna contra la polio (IPV) brinda a tu hijo una protección segura y duradera, y ayuda a evitar que esta enfermedad regrese. Aprende Más Varicela La varicela causa un sarpullido con picazón, fiebre y fatiga. Aunque muchos casos son leves, a veces puede provocar infecciones en la piel, neumonía o complicaciones graves. La vacuna contra la varicela protege a tu hijo y ayuda a evitar la propagación a otros, incluidos los recién nacidos y las personas con sistemas inmunológicos débiles. Aprende Más Gripe La gripe es más que un resfriado fuerte—puede causar fiebre alta, tos, fatiga y complicaciones graves como neumonía. Se recomienda la vacuna contra la gripe cada año para proteger a tu hijo de las cepas cambiantes del virus y ayudar a reducir la propagación en las escuelas y comunidades. Aprende Más

Keep your teen protected with recommended vaccines for ages 11–18. NCCHS offers safe, accessible immunizations for Nemaha County adolescents, including school-required shots. Adolescent Immunizations As kids grow into teens, their immune systems—and their lifestyles—change. Between the ages of 11 and 18, certain vaccines are needed to boost protection built during childhood and to guard against new risks that come with adolescence, such as increased exposure to certain infections in school, sports, social activities, or future travel. Recommended adolescent vaccines protect against serious diseases like meningitis, whooping cough, HPV-related cancers, tetanus, and more. Some are required for school entry or college, and others—like the HPV vaccine—offer protection later in life by preventing cancer-causing infections. At NCCHS, we’re here to help your teen stay healthy, active, and protected. Our team can answer questions about vaccine safety, timing, and school requirements, and we’ll work with your family to keep your child on schedule. Call 785-284-2152 to schedule an appointment or speak with a nurse about your teen’s immunization needs. Vaccines aren’t just for little kids—protection during the teen years matters too. Tetanus, Diphtheria, acellular pertussis (Tdap) This vaccine is a booster for the childhood DTaP series. It protects against tetanus (a painful infection from cuts or wounds), diphtheria (a throat infection that can block breathing), and pertussis (whooping cough), which can cause severe coughing fits and spread easily to babies and others. It’s recommended at age 11 to keep protection strong. Learn More Human Papillomavirus The HPV vaccine protects against the types of HPV that cause most cervical cancers, as well as cancers of the throat, anus, and genitals in both males and females. It’s most effective when given at ages 11–12, but can be started as early as 9. Early protection means a lower risk of cancer later in life. Two doses are given if started before age 15; three doses if started later. Learn More Influenza The flu is more than just a bad cold—it can cause high fever, cough, fatigue, and serious complications like pneumonia. The flu shot is recommended every year to protect your child from the changing strains of the virus and to help reduce the spread in schools and communities. Learn More Meningococcal This vaccine protects against meningococcal disease, a rare but serious illness that can cause meningitis (inflammation of the brain and spinal cord) and bloodstream infections. These conditions can be life-threatening and progress quickly. A first dose is recommended at age 11 or 12, with a booster at 16 to keep teens protected during the highest-risk years. Learn More Meningococcal B The MenB vaccine protects against a rare but serious strain of meningitis that can cause brain swelling and bloodstream infections. It’s recommended for ages 16–23, especially for those heading to college or living in group housing. The vaccine adds important protection during the years when the risk is highest. Learn More COVID-19 COVID-19 can affect children of all ages and may lead to serious illness, long-term symptoms, or hospitalization. The COVID-19 vaccine helps protect your child by reducing the risk of severe illness and spread to others. Staying up to date with recommended doses keeps their protection strong as the virus evolves. Learn More
