Introduction to Immunisation and Vaccinations Training (Foundation)

Day 2 will be virtually on MS Teams.

• The Immunisation and Vaccination Foundation is a blended learning programme.
• This training includes NHS Travel Vaccine schedules.
• This is for those new to providing Immunisation and Vaccinations
• This course does not cover anaphylaxis or basic life support. This must be completed separately.

In line with the Public Health England (2018) Minimum Standards and Core Curriculum for Immunisation Training for Registered Healthcare Practitioners, we have developed a blended approach of both an e-learning and a face-to-face taught course which previously consisted of two full taught days. Those new to immunisation are required to receive comprehensive foundation immunisation training.

The programme website is:– https://www.e-lfh.org.uk/programmes/immunisation/

The programme is free to access just register to use the e-lfh portal.

Delegates will be expected to complete a questionnaire post-session in order to receive a certificate of completion.

The course is designed around the updated National Minimum Standards and the competency assessment tool which must be undertaken in clinical practice following completion of the workshop. Please see the link below for a copy of the competency assessment tool for registered practitioners:

This is an interactive session and you will be expected to interact. Please ensure you have a camera and microphone available to attend the meeting.
