How Should SBHCs react to COVID-19?

In ongoing preparations and work to address the spread of the COVID-19 virus, the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) has asked all SBHC programs to report school closures by emailing the DOH at SBHCreports@health.ny.gov to alert the Department.

If your SBHC closes, the DOH requires a review all vaccine temperatures upon return to ensure ongoing viability before administering any vaccine.
