Segment 2

Setting up your COVID vaccination clinic 

 

To ensure nurses are up to date with the latest on the COVID vaccine rollout, APNA are hosting a special series of live webinars. The recordings of these are available here on Nursing Australia. To view the slides for the webinars, listen to Nursing Australia via the APNA website or if you are listening to audio only via a podcast listening app.

In the fourth webinar we were joined by Marg Jennings and Margaret Dempsey to discuss how to set up your COVID vaccination clinic.

Marg began by speaking about Infection prevention & control and then Margaret outlines how a nurse-led clinic model can be established.
