Travel Immunizations

If you plan to travel to a foreign country, be sure to protect your health by getting required and recommended vaccinations. Some shots must be given as a series, which can take time. So schedule your travel vaccinations SIX TO EIGHT WEEKS before you leave.

You can get these shots at the health department by appointment on these days:

Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays
1930 Ninth Avenue, Helena
For an appointment, call 406-457-8900
