Fargo Cass Public Health (FCPH) now offers drive-up clinics for routine immunizations. FCPH initially conducted drive-up clinics in smaller groups and is now ready to offer the service to the broader community. The drive-up clinics will be held from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the below dates:
- Friday, June 5
- Thursday, June 11
- Friday, June 19
- Thursday, June 25
Jessica Leitch, FCPH Immunization Coordinator, says, “We understand people might be nervous right now about going into a clinic for immunizations. However, we want people to keep up with routine immunizations, so we have created an alternative option that puts specific safety measures in place.”
The drive-up clinics are designed to minimize contact between the patient and the provider. Patients are required to wear masks and will remain in their vehicle throughout the appointment, including the 10-minute monitoring period after the immunization is given. This contactless system also includes handling all paperwork, insurance and payment matters over the phone.
Appointments are required and can be made by calling 701.241.1383. Drive-up immunizations will be available for those 11 and older. Routine immunizations for those younger than 11 are available in the clinic. Additional details will be provided at the time the appointment is made.
