National Standards 3.6 – Immunisations

[Wendy Naisoro]

Dear Colleagues,

I am interested in finding out how each of your facilities are attending to 3.6 of the National Standards Developing, implementing and monitoring a risk- based workforce immunisation program in accordance with the current NHMRC Australian Immunisation Guidelines.

In particular I am looking at:
1.Who is paying for the recommended vaccinations? Eg. Organisation or staff member.
2.If the organisation is paying for the vaccinations, which vaccinations are they paying for?
3.If you are sending the staff to the GP how do you get the information back to be able to place on staff health file?
4.Do you have a database or system in place to be able to record the vaccinations and / or refusal of vaccinations?
5.What resources do you have available to you? Eg. Clinical staff to vaccinate, clerical staff, funding for vaccinations and / or serology
6.How many beds do you have?
7.How many staff do you have, including both clinical and non clinical(not FTEs but head of staff)?
8.And how many Staff Health or Occupational Health personnel do you have at your organisation both clinical and clerical?

Just trying to get a guide on where everyone is at due to this being in the National Guidelines and a mandatory requirement.

Kind regards
