Hello brains trust

Further information sought on who can give staff the flu vaccination – our nurse immuniser is home isolating and I have the vaccinations to give. Can I appoint a registered nurse to give – or do we need to source a nurse immuniser?

Thanks in advance for your advice.

Hi Sarah
As far as I am aware the attached is the only info on this so far. I have asked for some more clarification from VICNISS around staff who have had serious reactions to the flu vaccination in the past etc. The advice I have had back is that it is under review by DHHS currently and there is more info to follow.

Hope this helps

Hi Team,

Is anyone aware of any written/documented material to enforce the mandatory influenza vaccinations for health care workers in residential aged care facilities in Victoria?
Any help would be much appreciated.

Kind regards,
