Immunisation
Project Rationale
NSHI worked in collaboration with BLMK CCG, in support of the National Immunisation Project, to deliver the following objectives:
- Support BLMK with the backlog of scheduled immunisations, by supplementing service provision and reducing the locality’s waiting list.
- Additional nursing resource provided to undertake the delivery required vaccinations included within the NIP.
- The nurses deployed in a number of clinical locations, including GP practices identified as having a high number of patients requiring their vaccinations.
- BLMK CCG identified their childhood immunisation programme as being a priority, but other patients requiring a vaccination contained within the NIP* were included within the immunisation clinics delivered by NSHI.
- * Covid-19 vaccinations are not included within the NIP.
- 75 of 98 practices supported by NSHI Nurse Resource across BLMK – on a targeted basis with ‘need’ identified by Childhood Immunisation Service (CHIS).
- Delivered 4,268 immunisations to 2,529 patients.
- 90% of all immunisations were delivered to patients between 0 – 17 years (the vast majority of which were in the target group for MMR and pre-school boosters.
