I'm 22 years old and have been to a lot of urgent cares in my life but I can honestly say this is the best experience I have ever had at one. I waited for less than 5 minutes both times I have been here - the staff is incredible and made me feel so comfortable. For as long as I live in Grand Rapids, I will be going to this Urgent Care. Selma and Scott (I think the doctors name was) were both fantastic. Thank you!

I can only speak for Dr. Bonnie cause she’s the only one I’ve seen each time there, however she is very personable, kind considerate & gets right to it. I’ve never had to wait long times like at other urgent cares. The whole staff is nice & works together well.

Highly Rated

This was my husband’s and my second visit to this HH Urgent Care facility. Our first was last February when my husband broke his wrist in a fall on the ice. This was a very positive experience considering the situation. We connected with the nurse there who was trained as a chiropractor and understood our desire to be as holistic as possible. Considering this was a broken bone with terrible swelling situation this was sill a highly satisfying medical experience. This week I sought treatment for myself at this same HH Urgent Care. It was an act of God that we partnered with Dr. Garett Shook who turned out to be a DO trained Pediatrician and Emergency Medicine Physician. He listened to my situation and my holistic desires, he was very compassionate and worked in partnership with me on my diagnosis and office surgery treatment. I explained I do best if he talked me through what he was doing and he was willing to do this, and did so. He immediately understood my desire to do the least medicine possible and he was agreeable to this. He made suggestions and gave me options, which I appreciated tremendously. He understood my desire to try to not take antibiotics if possible and his office surgery technique was very gentle and manageable. In spite of my high pain levels I felt highly satisfied with his treatment and left feeling that I wanted to find out where this physician practiced and see him on a regular basis. Surprisingly we re-connected a second time with the same male nurse (from our February visit) who remembered us from our first visit and we chatted again. In my Kalamazoo, MI past (I am age 68) I have not had a satisfactory experience(s) at an urgent care clinic; however, I can highly recommend this urgent care facility for its quality of care. It has been a five-star experience both times I have gone to HH Urgent Care.

Sparta requires children to be vaccinated or provide evidence of immunity before entering public school. Individuals who have come into contact with a case of the chickenpox should seek vaccination within three to five days of being exposed, or as soon as possible. Individuals who are allergic to gelatin or the antibiotic neomycin, pregnant or ill should consult with their doctor before seeking a vaccine.

Sparta Chickenpox Vaccine

The varicella vaccine, sometimes known as the chickenpox vaccine, can help you avoid contracting the disease. By understanding more about what this immunization does and who should get it, you can make an informed health care decision for yourself and your family.

Chickenpox vaccination: what everyone should know

Chickenpox is a highly contagious disease caused by the varicella-zoster virus. Chickenpox is characterized by an itchy, blister-like rash that appears first on the chest, back, and face before spreading to the rest of the body, according to the CDC. Other symptoms include fever and fatigue.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, two doses of the chickenpox vaccine are around 90% effective in preventing chickenpox, which means you could still get the disease after being vaccinated. Children, adolescents, and adults who have never had chickenpox or been inoculated against it should get this vaccination.

Who needs the chickenpox vaccine?

According to the CDC, children, teens, and adults should receive two doses of the chickenpox vaccine.
Children between the ages of 12 and 15 should receive the first dose of the chickenpox vaccine, and children between the ages of four and six should receive the second dose. Children can take the second dose at a younger age if it is given at least three months after the first, according to the CDC.

Those aged 13 and up who have never had chickenpox or been vaccinated should get two doses spaced by at least 28 days. According to the CDC, the chickenpox vaccine is especially important for healthcare workers, teachers, college students, nursing home patients, and international travelers.
Consult your doctor to see if you need the chickenpox vaccine based on your current health situation.

Who should not get the chickenpox vaccine?

You don't need the vaccine if you show evidence of immunity against chickenpox, according to the CDC. Immunity is demonstrated, among other things, by being born in the United States before 1980 and having a confirmed diagnosis of chickenpox.

According to the CDC, the following people should not obtain the chickenpox vaccine:

  • Those who have suffered a life-threatening reaction to the chickenpox vaccine or any of its components.
  • Those who are moderately or severely ill when their chickenpox immunization appointment is scheduled.
  • Women who are expecting children.

Certain patients should see their doctors before getting the chickenpox vaccine. According to the CDC, this includes:

  • Those who have an illness of the immune system, such as HIV or AIDS.
  • Those who have cancer or are being treated for cancer with radiation or medicines.
  • Those who have received a blood transfusion recently.

Two types of chickenpox vaccines

Two types of chickenpox vaccines are now approved for use in the United States. The vaccines' brand names, according to the CDC, are Varivax® and ProQuad®.

Varivax®

Varivax® contains only the chickenpox vaccination. Adults, teenagers, and children aged 12 months and up are the only ones who can get this vaccine.

ProQuad®

ProQuad® is a vaccine that includes the chickenpox vaccine as well as immunizations for measles, mumps, and rubella. This vaccination is only approved for children ages 12 months to 12 years, according to the CDC.

Getting vaccinated after you are exposed to chickenpox

If you have been exposed to chickenpox, the CDC recommends getting vaccinated within three to five days after contact. It goes on to state that you should get two doses of the vaccine even if you've been exposed for more than five days. Each of these dosages should be separated by at least 28 days.

Childcare and school chickenpox vaccine requirements

If you have been exposed to chickenpox, the CDC recommends getting vaccinated within three to five days after contact. It goes on to state that you should get two doses of the vaccine even if you've been exposed for more than five days. Each of these dosages should be separated by at least 28 days.

Your healthcare practitioner can discuss whether or not your children should get the chickenpox vaccine with you in greater detail based on your family's religious and philosophical beliefs, as well as their medical history.

How can parents pay for the chickenpox vaccine?

The chickenpox vaccination is covered by most health insurance policies, according to the CDC. If your health insurance plan does not cover the cost of your children's chickenpox immunization, the Vaccines for Children (VFC) program may be able to help. The CDC recommends contacting VFC directly to see if you're qualified for financial aid through this program.
