The DPH immunization team is here to help you help students who have fallen behind on their immunizations – and keep them on track. Please use the links on this page to access the resources you need to make sure all students are safe from vaccine-preventable diseases.

CT WiZ Training for School Nurses

We encourage school nurses to use CT WiZ. If you don’t administer vaccines to students at your school(s) or related clinics, you will have “read-only” access to view resources and run reports. If you administer vaccines to students at your school(s) or related clinics, you will be given clinic-level access, which allows you to view and update information for students at your school(s).

CT WiZ School Nurses Desk Guide

This comprehensive guide shows you how to manage student rosters, view and update student records, identify students who are due and overdue for immunizations, and more. Please keep in mind that some students may not be in CT WiZ because they were born out of state or they were opted out of CT WiZ by their parents. Others may be difficult to find in CT WiZ because their record doesn’t exactly match your student roster upload.
