Below are tips on how to find your immunization records:
• Ask parents or other caregivers if they have records of your childhood immunizations.
• Check with your high school and/or college health services for dates of any immunizations. Records
are usually kept for one to two years after students graduate.
• Check with previous employers (as well as the military) that may have required immunizations.
• Check with your physician or public health clinic. Please note that if you receive your healthcare at
University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics, UEHC does not have access to your personal medical
records, but you may obtain your own records through MyChart via a personal computer
https://mychart.uihealthcare.com/mychart/ or a cell phone app from the App Store or Google Play.
• Check your local immunization registry. All states and some cities have centralized registries of
vaccines given by local providers. A registry may not have all ages or all records, but this still can be a
great place to check. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has a listing of registry
contacts and websites at https://www.cdc.gov/iis/contacts-locate-records/
