Immunization of School Pupil’s Act (ISPA) programming resources
The Immunization of School Pupil’s Act (ISPA) is an Ontario law that requires Public Health Sudbury & Districts to collect and review immunization records for every year for all school-aged child up to 18 years of age. School principals, delegates, and staff are essential partners to the success of this programming to ensure protection of health and prevention of disease outbreaks.
