Description

This short learning is part of one module from the current Travel Health Update course offered by Jane Chiodini. This has been provided in conjunction with a recent Travel Health Update in Practice Nurse Journal found here.  The original intention was to provide this module of learning on the two dilemmas described, but I decided to provide access to all five dilemmas free of charge on this occasion, because I appreciate it is an issue for some practitioners working in a primary care setting in particular.  The five scenarios are:

  1. GP Surgery refusing to provide a travel service
  2. GP service only giving the travel vaccines but not performing a risk assessment or giving advice
  3. One nurse performing a risk assessment and then passing on the task of giving the vaccine(s) and advice to colleague
  4. Follow up doses of vaccine - who should be performing this? 
  5. Writing of a PSD - who should take responsibility for the task?

The scenarios are discussed in a digital platform which includes not only a presentation with a voiceover, but also the notes and quick access to interesting resources.   A handout is available to keep including the weblinks to many of the resources mentioned, along with other materials which will be of use within your day to day practice.  

PLEASE NOTE: you will have one week to complete the course which starts when you purchase the training - this is being given to you free of charge.  So please time this for when you want to begin the education - it won't take long to study.  

ON COMPLETION: a certificate for one hour of learning will be provided.
