How the Immunisation Advisory Centre is supporting the Covid-19 vaccine rollout

31 May 2021
Training the vaccinator workforce is not only confined to 免费色情视频, but extends to the Pacific Islands.

In the year and a half or so since the first people in China were sickened by an illness later named Covid-19, the world has changed dramatically. Now, however, some countries are beginning to return to something approaching normal.

American grandparents are hugging their grandchildren again. People in the UK are dining in restaurants again. The easing of restrictions in these countries has been achieved largely through vaccination.

Though life in 免费色情视频 may feel relatively normal under Level One, its borders remain tightly controlled. To ease border restrictions, 免费色情视频 too must undertake the mammoth task of vaccinating most of its population.

 (IMAC), a UniServices business unit, is playing a part in 免费色情视频鈥檚 vaccination roll-out as well as that of the Pacific Islands.

To support 免费色情视频鈥檚 largest-ever vaccination campaign, it is heavily involved in training the large workforce required.

聽Training vaccinators and support staff

To enable the safe vaccination of people across the country, 免费色情视频 not only needs to ensure active vaccinators know how to handle a new type of vaccine with specialised storage requirements, it needs to dramatically grow its vaccinator workforce. IMAC is the only provider contracted to develop and deliver the training required to do that.

In addition to providing training for active vaccinators to deliver the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, which requires ultracold storage, IMAC developed a course for healthcare professionals who do not normally administer vaccines. People eligible to take the provisional vaccinator course include student nurses and pharmacists in their final years of study, fourth-year medical students, midwives, paramedics, physiotherapists and other health professionals. 

To further add to the vaccine delivery workforce, IMAC is developing a new training programme for a supporting workforce that will work alongside trained vaccinators. Pilot training, attended by predominantly healthcare support workers, has already been held and the full programme is scheduled to be available in June. An aim is to diversify the vaccination workforce, with a focus on increasing the number of M膩ori and Pacific people on vaccination teams.

New website

Another way IMAC is responding to the vaccine rollout is through information. It has developed a new website, , with information for vaccinators, would-be vaccinators, allied healthcare professionals and members of the public seeking information about Covid vaccination.

For healthcare workers, the site offers information on how to become a Covid-19 vaccinator, access to training and downloadable resources. For others interested in learning more about the science and vaccination process, the site makes evidence-based clinical information available in clear language. 

Supporting the Pacific

IMAC staff members are also working to support the vaccination rollout in the Pacific Islands. Support is determined by the country鈥檚 specific needs and may include training the workforce, help with vaccine cold chain management and setting up of vaccination clinics. 

Though 免费色情视频 has been praised around the world for its science-based handling of the pandemic, for 免费色情视频 and the Pacific to be safe in the long term, widespread vaccination is an absolute must. IMAC is doing its part to help assure a safe future in a reopened world.
