Hi all
The OH dept has been asked to comment on how we might increase uptake of the flu vaccine next season. (Don't... is this the bain of every OH dept's life...?)
Anyway, the CMO has issued a letter - see below

In turn, NHSL issued a letter asking for assurances for next season's flu vaccinations and are asking how we are planning to increase uptake.
So, all ideas/suggestions welcome... We already do advertising, visits to wards and departments, FAQ's and the like.
One brilliant idea came from talking to an OH person at another hospital today. They had their night time service managers trained up to administer flu vaccinations to night staff.
S :-)
