Where is best place to get required immunization for nursing degree
#9
It's not mentioned a lot, because it doesn't matter to most people, but the MMR vaccine doesn't always "stick". That is, you can be vaccinated multiple times and not have any antibodies at all. It can happen with other vaccines, I believe, but it's most common with the MMR vaccine. I've heard that some schools require BOTH the vaccine and the antibody test and it's relatively common for aspiring nurses to need to get vaccinated many, many times before the antibody test proved that they were actually vaccinated.

I think the most times I heard was 6 or 7 and the nurse-to-be finally had to schedule the vaccine one day, then the test on the next day or the day after in order to show any immune response at all on the test. If your school is vaccine OR test, I'd just go get vaccinated.
