Purpose

The PHR 1 Immunization Program provides services to 44 counties in the Texas Panhandle and South Plains. Our Regional Office is in Lubbock, our Regional Sub-Office is in Amarillo, and our Regional Field Offices are in Hereford, Pampa, and Dumas. We also work with the Local Health Departments in the region.

The mission of the Immunization Division is to improve the quality and longevity of life for people in Texas by achieving and maintaining a vaccine-preventable disease-free environment. This will add to the state's economic base by avoiding substantial healthcare costs. This mission will be achieved through the utilization of cost-effective immunization programs and efficient epidemiology applied in quality partnerships with public and private participants (local, state, and national) who share the common vision of community well-being.

For Immunization Program-related questions, contact Marie Hernandez, RN, Immunization Program Supervisor for PHR 1.
