Community Pharmacy Flu Vaccination (CPFV) Service
Community Pharmacy Flu Vaccination (CPFV) Service
CPNI is delighted with how community pharmacy teams have again stepped up during this challenging pandemic period to provide the newly commissioned Flu Vaccination service, for health and social care workers (HSCWs) launched last week (w/c 28th Sept).
A flu vaccination service update highlighted:
- 10,000 flu vaccines orders placed by community pharmacies.
- 1,028 vaccines administered by community pharmacists in the first week (based on numbers of electronic forms submitted to BSO).
- 84% of HSCWs who had vaccines administered in the first week by community pharmacists to be female, with the majority designated as Non-Trust Employed HSCWs.
Primarily, CPNI would like to thank contractors and pharmacy teams for your tremendous initial effort and enthusiasm in engaging with this important service. It is vitally important that we continue to work together to make this a success.
