The Foundation Immunisation training is for health care professionals, who will be administering vaccines within a primary care setting, including those in the childhood vaccination programme.
Only HCSWs who have achieved or are currently undertaking education and training to Level 3 of the Qualifications and Credit Framework (QCF)4 or equivalent with at least 2 years’ experience as a HCSW will be considered eligible for training in vaccine administration.
Our immunisation training programme is interprofessional to incorporate the many different healthcare workers who can now participate in immunisation. Interprofessional education also improves understanding of other professional roles and responsibilities, which in turn has a positive impact on patient outcomes.
