In order to vaccinate, the National Standards for training are set by the Health Protection Agency. 

Initially there is a 2 day course followed by annual updates.

 

Here is the core curriculum

and the national standards

I believe this is what the SEQOHS assessors look for ...

 

This is why the bespoke OH study days I have been running for 4 years  include the core curriculum, anaphylaxis and I get the Red Cross to do the CPR aspect.. all in once day, no hunting about.

 

I think you need to see your training (in  whatever area of practice) as a core cost like business insurance, accountancy fees, etc, and just spend to get it. 

Because you and your business  are at risk if you don't.

 

Cheers

Diane
