Accurate recording of all vaccines given – and good management of all associated documentation – is essential, as per the standards set out in the core service specifications, Statement of Financial Entitlement (SFE) and contracts.
The Provider must ensure that information on vaccines administered, including the product name of the vaccine administered, Gardasil 4 or 9, is submitted directly to the Registered general practitioner and any relevant population vaccination registers – in most areas, this is the Child Health Information Service (CHIS).
Following a vaccination session or clinic or individual vaccination, local arrangements should be made for the transfer of data onto the relevant CHIS. Where possible this should aim to be within 2 working days.
Arrangements will also be required to inform neighbouring areas when children resident in their area are immunised outside their local area.
