Immunization Policy for EMT Programs

All students must submit an immunization record as a part of the enrollment process. Upon submission of an application for admission, an Immunization Hold is placed in the applicant’s record. This hold will prevent registration until the Student Immunization Record is completed and submitted. Failure to complete immunizations in a timely manner may result in disciplinary measures.

Required immunizations:

• Hepatitis B Vaccine (3 series). Students are required to receive a complete series of HEP B vaccine prior to the start of direct patient care, or show serologic confirmation of immunity to HEP B virus. This is a 6-month process, so start this as soon as possible!

• Meningitis Shot

• Tetanus

• 2 MMRs

• Chicken Pox (or documentation of having contracted the disease)

• Flu Shot (annual)

• TB Test (within 6 months of the start of clinical, or a negative chest x-ray if prior positive)

See Required Form: Student Immunization Form 02.04.003. F01 Students may also document immunization compliance through submission of documents by an Axon Training Partner. Applicants should submit immunization documentation to: ally@axoneducation.com
