Clinic information - Section 1 of 3

Capital Health Care would like you to concentrate on two primary area's of concern.

1. Read the employees consent form 
Is the employee taking new medications or have disclosed any medical conditions. Have they had any recent vaccinations. 

As a trained immunisation nurse it is your responsibility to check digital consent forms if you are unsure "do not vaccinate" ask the employee to review with their doctor.

​You may also ask the employee to come back later in the day if you need to check online information https://www.drugs.com/drug-interactions/influenza-virus-vaccine-inactivated.html - save this link on your mobile.
​
2. Vaccination position 
Please watch the video below, always check position as per the diagram right of screen. Note: squeezing the muscle front to back increases the thickness and depth of the muscle and avoids nerve injuries.
