At my own Trust we were worried that our initial delivery of vaccine was going to be too small to split between staff and patients but we have been reassured we are receiving a higher number of vaccines ion the first delivery than originally thought. The PGD was causing a headache as my Trust is keen to have a locally designed document. I duly write one for pandemrix and it has already been approved. This has allowed me to train the vaccinating team. My Trust has been very supportive and has paid for a team of vaccinators and administrators for a 6 week programme. Unfortunately we have slightly struggled because of the scarcity of definitive information from the Department of Health but everything is now falling into place for us to commence our programme on Thursday and Friday this week. Good luck Paul Paul D'Arcy Clinical Nurse Leader Occupational Health Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust 2nd Floor Hammersmith House Hammersmith Hospital Du Cane Road London W12 0HS Tel 020 8383 3063 UK's first Academic Health Science Centre incorporating St Mary's and Hammersmith Hospitals, in partnership with Imperial College London ________________________________ From: [log in to unmask] [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Huguenel, Tracy Sent: 20 October 2009 09:48 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [OCC-HEALTH] Swine Flu vaccination frontline staff I am slightly confused, even after all the planning and meetings involved in the distribution of the swine flu vaccine to all frontline staff, a query has arisen relating to high risk in-patients in hospital. We are debating with our head of clinical services, who wants the decision on who to vaccinate first between staff and patients to be taken by the Trust. My understanding was that the first delivery of vaccine to Acute Trusts was for frontline staff, and the second wave of delivery (waves again!) would be allocated for patients. There is also some confusion about whether the acute Trusts or PCT's should be vaccinating patients (arghh). Also the Patient Group Directive is causing some hoo har (very professional terminology). My understanding was the Dept of Health was sending the PGD with the vaccine tomorrow, and at the workshop on Thursday, the advice was the PGC would not need to be signed off by the powers that be in each Trust, as it is exceptional circumstances, and the DoH would sign it off. Each ward based vaccinator would then sign their PGD. I fnayone agress with this, or has any other information, please let me know. I have draft information, but nothing definitive.
