[karenbooth1@BIGPOND.COM Subject: Re: Staff vaccinations and the AIR In-Reply-To:]

HI Michael,

It is a disappointing aspect of the system that nurses are still required to
use a doctor provider number to enter the vaccine in AIR, especially for
nurses who are accredited immunisers who are authorised to give NIP
vaccines. My cynical comment for the day.

Good move to register the vaccinations on AIR.

Regards

Karen

Hi Michael,

We organised adding all vaccines onto the AIR about 16 months ago.

By approaching the Executive Director of Medical Services he has allowed us
to access his provider number for the hospital and we enter all staff
vaccinations provided using his details.

It did take a little while to organise the access and the password to go
with it but once organised very easy to upload vaccine details.

All the best

regards
