Let's remove barriers so that #PharmacyTechnicians in the UK can be trained to vaccinate, and support attainment of community immunity

Now's the time to produce a training programme & PSDs to support the delivery of this year's flu prevention plan

#vaccines #InfectionPrevention
We need to adopt QI methodology to address this #publichealth concern

The drivers are clear - this is about ⬆️ #patientsafety via #prevention

It should not be about inter-professional competition; there is enough work for everyone
It's important to #vaccinate as many people as possible to protect those who're vulnerable

Although UK flu activity levels were not high last year, impact on 2°care was high due to hospitlisation & ICU admissions

This year looks set to ⬆️ so let's be innovative w/ healthcare WF
UK often mirrors Australian #influenza patterns where so far this year 94,000 cases have been reported - that's 12-fold ⬆️ #flu infections than previous 3 years combined!

We need all hands on deck to prevent similar patterns emerging here in a few months

#FluFighters
NHS staff who have their #flu jab, administer #influenza vaccines & educate others about herd immunity will help to protect #patients, colleagues, friends and family from flu this winter

Let's plan, train and deliver! Flu cycle
#PharmacyTechnicians are registered healthcare professionals who thrive on providing care to people

With a touch of innovation, a modicum of inspiration & some fwd thinking, PTs could definitely have positive impact on peer vaccination programmes in hospitals
