The Role of Nursing Associates in Vaccination and Immunisation
Publication Code : 007 565The RCN recognises that nursing teams are key to the safe and effective administration of large numbers of vaccinations to those who need them. The overriding principle is: health care professionals involved in the prescribing or administration of vaccines must be suitably competent and have the knowledge as well as the skills to ensure patient safety, and public trust in immunisation is maintained. In some clinical areas, it is likely that NAs will be involved in the delivery of the national immunisation programme.
