Nevada WebIZ has a tool for getting Official Immunization Records: the Public Access Portal!
The Public Access Portal allows parents and legal guardians to print official immunization records for their child(ren) (aged 0 through 17 years). It also allows adult individuals (aged 18 years and over) to print official immunization records for themselves. This is an official record and can be used as proof of immunization for school entry, summer camp, employment, etc.
To utilize the Public Access Portal, the patient’s immunization record must be stored in Nevada WebIZ with the following demographic information correctly entered:
- First Name
- Last Name
- Date of Birth
- Gender
- Email address/Cell phone number
If you are experiencing difficulty obtaining your immunization record through the Public Access Portal, contact the Nevada WebIZ Help Desk to verify the completeness and accuracy of the record’s required information.

Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP)
The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) consists of 15 experts in fields associated with immunization who have been selected by the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services to provide advice and guidance to the Secretary, the Assistant Secretary for Health, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on the control of vaccine-preventable diseases.
The Committee develops written recommendations for the routine administration of vaccines to children and adults. The ACIP is the only entity in the federal government that makes such recommendations. To learn more about the ACIP, click here. To view the current recommendations for children and adults, click here to visit the ACIP’s Immunization Schedules webpage.

Where to Receive Vaccines
The best place for any child to receive immunizations is within the context of ongoing primary care. Talking with your primary care nurse or doctor about immunizations can also get you into the habit of discussing other issues affecting the health of you or your child. Any time your child visits the doctor, whether it is for a check-up or a rash, fever or emergency visit, you should always ask "Are my child’s immunizations up to date?" Every visit to the doctor’s office is an opportunity to immunize!
If you or your child do not have a source of primary care, immunizations are available throughout Nevada at minimal or no charge. Listed below are links to our state’s health departments, all of which provide vaccination services.
