Current through Reg. 49, No. 38; September 20, 2024
(a) Each child enrolled or admitted to your operation must meet and continue to meet applicable immunization requirements specified by the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS). This requirement applies to all children in care through 14 years of age.
(b) You must maintain current immunization records for each child in your care, including any immunization exemptions or exceptions.
(c) All immunizations required for the child's age must be completed by the date of admission, unless:
(1) The child is exempt or excepted
from an immunization, and you verify the exemption or exception by the date of
admission; or
(2) The child is
homeless or in foster care and is provisionally admitted for up to 30 days
because evidence of immunization is not available. You should immediately refer
the child to an appropriate health-care professional to obtain the required
immunizations. The DSHS rule at 25 TAC §
97.66(relating
to Provisional Enrollment for Students) establishes the guidelines for a
provisional enrollment.
