Lake Forest Pediatric Associates held a successful School Supply Drive for local Round Lake area children affected by the flooding in August. Families with children at Beach Elementary, Ellis Elementary, and Murphy Elementary were especially impacted by area flooding.

Thank you to our staff from all three Lake Forest Pediatric Associates’ offices who participated in the school supply drive by purchasing, collecting, sorting, and delivering the school supplies. Backpacks, notebooks, art supplies, and more filled three extra-large boxes to overflowing!

Members of our Employee Engagement Committee delivered the school supplies to the Superintendent Office, Round Lake Community Unit School District 116, to be distributed throughout the school district.

Financial donations for restoration efforts from the flooding may be sent to the Round Lake Area Schools Education Foundation.

The physicians and staff of Lake Forest Pediatric Associates, Ltd (LFPA) care about your child’s health. Protecting your child from vaccine preventable illness is one of the most important things we can do to ensure your child lives a long and healthy life. It is the recommendation of LFPA that all children should follow the vaccine schedule as published by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). LFPA will adhere to the recommended vaccine schedule of the state of Illinois’ required immunizations and will not support the use of delayed or alternate schedules.

In order to best protect your child, as well as all of our patients, LFPA will no longer accept patients whose parents do not vaccinate their children according to the recommended vaccine schedule. Patients who are behind on receiving the recommended vaccines will be given the opportunity to catch up through a timetable provided by their physician.

While we respect your right as a parent to make medical decisions for your child, those parents who do not wish to comply with the recommended vaccine schedule will be asked to seek medical care elsewhere.

We know that there is a lot of conflicting advice and misinformation regarding the necessity and safety of vaccines. The providers of LFPA are willing to discuss any questions regarding vaccines and provide resources for parents regarding the safety of vaccines and the recommended vaccine schedule.

Required vaccines:

* Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis
* Haemophilus influenza type b
* Hepatitis B
* Invasive pneumococcal disease
* Measles, Mumps, Rubella
* Meningococcal meningitis
* Polio
* Varicella
