The South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) is working with your
school district to provide flu vaccines at your child’s school this fall. This year DHEC is offering both the
flu shot and the flu nasal spray. It is important that all children get vaccinated every year.
There will be no cost to you or your child for the flu vaccine/nasal spray at school. If applicable, payment
from Medicaid will be made to DHEC on your behalf.
If you would like your child to get a flu vaccine or flu nasal spray at school:
1. Go to https://apps.dhec.sc.gov/healt... using your smartphone,
computer or tablet or scan QR code with your smartphone to access the link.
2. Then, enter [ ] as your validation code.
3. Complete the online consent and click “submit.”
If your child is under the age of 9, he or she may need to get a second flu vaccine or flu nasal spray for the
best protection. You will be notified if your child will need a second flu vaccine or flu nasal spray.
If your child does not receive the flu vaccine or flu nasal spray at school, please contact your child’s
healthcare provider or health department to get the flu vaccine or nasal spray.
