Keeping childhood immunization records

The Child Health Passport is a passport-sized booklet for parents to use to record important health information about their child, including height and weight, illnesses, accidents, allergies, hospitalizations, and immunizations. The passport also provides safety tips and a space to record findings for hearing, dental, and vision checks.

 

Where to get a Child Health Passport

The passport is available for all parents of newborns in British Columbia. Parents typically receive a Child Health Passport in their birth packs, or they can be obtained through your local Community Health Centre.

Visit the Healthy Families BC website to download a copy of the Child Health Passport.

Child health clinics

Public Health nurses provide immunizations, check growth and development and provide health information for children up to age five at child health clinics.
