SOP For Designated Staff Accepting Influenza Vaccines Delivered from Walton Hospital Pharmacy Across Nominated DCHS Sites (S100)
Flu vaccination is offered to DCHS staff annually. Supplies are delivered directly to Walton Hospital Pharmacy, from where they need to be distributed to sites in a number of locations across Derbyshire prior to use. Flu vaccines require cold storage, in line with the product license. It is important to maintain the cold chain at all times as temperature excursions can adversely affect stability of the product.
To set out a clear process for staff receiving deliveries of flu vaccinations in DCHS from Walton Hospital Pharmacy to ensure the cold chain is maintained and staff know what to do in the event of any breach.
