Description
All clinicians administering vaccines should undertake annual update training. Our annual update has been developed in line with the ‘National Minimum Standards and Core Curriculum for Immunisation Training for Registered Healthcare Practitioners’ – Public Health England.
The initial ‘core modules’ section of this interactive and engaging course explores all of the day to day issues arising from running a vaccination service, followed by individual lessons on each of the vaccine preventable diseases and corresponding vaccines available on private travel health services, but not NHS funded travel vaccines.
Please note: This course does not cover Seasonal Influenza – please purchase our Seasonal Influenza add on course if you would like Seasonal Influenza in addition.
This training is suitable for Practice Nurses, Pharmacists, GPs and any Registered Healthcare Professionals administering private travel vaccines.
