Copies of your immunization records, which must contain:

Two doses of MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) or one dose of measles vaccine and one MMR, given at least one month apart, given after your first birthday
The first two of three doses of Hepatitis B vaccine, given at least one month apart.
If you have not had the chicken pox, you need two doses of Varicella vaccine given at least one month apart, given after your first birthday. If you have had the chicken pox, we will need to know how old you were when you had the disease.
One dose of Tetanus/Diptheria (Td) or Tetanus/Diptheria/Pertussis (Tdap) vaccine within the past five years. If it has been over 5 years, the current recommendation for health care providers is to receive a dose of the new vaccine, Tetanus/Diptheria/Pertussis (Tdap).

Serologic proof of immunity to measles, rubella, hepatitis B and varicella may exempt you from the vaccination, if the documentation is attached.

Tuberculosis Skin Testing (also known as PPD or TST), if you have never been tested for TB, or it has been greater than a year since your last test, a two-step test is required (two tests, given 1-3 weeks apart). If you have never had a two-step test, but have had a TST in the past 12 months, one additional TST will be needed. In the case of a previous positive PPD, documentation of a clear chest x-ray is required. QFT-G laboratory test results are also acceptable.
