Training Dates – Pharmacy Flu Vaccination Advanced Service 2017
Cornwall and Isles of Scilly LPC are working in partnership with the NPA to provide training and support for any pharmacist wishing to be able to deliver the recently announced NHS Advanced Flu Service that all community pharmacies are eligible to provide from September this year.
This training is open to all pharmacists regardless of NPA membership.
IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: It remains the personal and professional responsibility of the pharmacist, in all cases, to ensure that they are trained, confident and competent to offer the flu vaccination service including treatment of anaphylaxis and resuscitation techniques; the pharmacist must decide for themselves whether they should undergo the full vaccination training or the online refresher in view of this.
The full training covers intramuscular, subcutaneous, intranasal and intradermal vaccination techniques; basic life support and anaphylaxis management and access to the private PGDs.
The training will take place on Tuesday 22nd August at the Board Room at Narrowcliff Surgery, Narrowcliff, Newquay, TR7 2QF from 7 pm to 10.30 pm. A light buffet will be served at 6.30 pm.
