DALHART, TEXAS – Dallam Hartley Counties Hospital District is pleased to host two comprehensive immunization clinics for students, in collaboration with Dalhart Independent School District. The clinics, focused on administering all school-required vaccines, will take place on Friday, July 28, from 3:00 to 7:00 p.m. and Saturday, July 29, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at Dalhart Family Medicine Clinic, located at 206 E. 16th Street in Dalhart.

As part of our commitment to promoting public health and ensuring the well-being of students, DHCHD is organizing this clinic to administer all school-required vaccines.

“The school immunization clinic will offer a comprehensive range of vaccines that align with the immunization requirements set forth by the State of Texas,” said Michelle Macha, DHCHD Marketing Director. “These include vaccines for diseases such as measles, mumps, rubella, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, and hepatitis B, among others. By providing these required vaccinations in a convenient and accessible manner, we aim to streamline the immunization process for students and their families.”

The clinics are open to all students attending schools in Dalhart, Hartley, Texline, Channing, and the surrounding areas, regardless of grade level or vaccination status. Our skilled and experienced healthcare professionals will be on-site to administer the vaccines, provide compassionate care and address any questions or concerns.
