Aim
Be able to competently and safely administer Influenza, HPV, MMR, Covid-19, Shingles, Pneumococcal and Travel Vaccines, as well as B12 injections, with comprehensive and up-to-date understanding and skill.
Objectives
Clinical Observation
Following this training, delegates must be supervised administering injections in their workplace, until deemed competent by their supervisor. This supervised practice must be recorded in a provided logbook, and signed off by the supervisor upon successful completion. Supervisors do not require a formal teaching qualification but must be competent in immunisation. It is the delegates responsibility to source their own clinical supervisor, we recommend that delegates do so prior to course commencement.
Whilst there is no requirement as to how many times this supervised practice should occur, both the supervisor and new practitioner need to feel confident that the practitioner has the necessary skills and knowledge to administer vaccines. If the practitioner gives a range of different vaccines to patients of different ages, their supervisor should ensure this is taken into account and they should be given the opportunity to observe and also be assessed on this range.
Annual Update
Please note, immunisers should attend annual updates in order to ensure the ongoing delivery of a high quality, safe and effective national immunisation programme.
