Back To School Vaccinations

Parents have been getting their kids ready for a new school year with new clothes, shoes and school supplies.  But what about back to school vaccinations?  Aubrey DeCoteau, a pediatric nurse practitioner at Essentia Health in Fargo, says 16 year-olds need shots.

DeCoteau runs down the guidelines for younger children going into pre-school or kindergarten.
