Children’s Services Immunisation Policy 0-19 Years (P2)
The current immunisation schedule has been designed to provide early protection against infections that are most dangerous for the very young. This is particularly important for diseases such as whooping cough, pneumococcal, Hib and meningococcal serogroup C infection. Providing subsequent immunisations and booster doses ensures continued protection against these diseases. Additional vaccinations are offered at specific points throughout the child, young person, and adult’s life to provide protection against infections before they reach an age at which they become at increased risk from certain vaccine-preventable diseases. Recommendations for the age at which vaccines should be administered are therefore informed by the age-specific risk for a disease, the risk of disease complications and the ability to respond to the vaccine. The recommended immunisation schedule should therefore be followed as closely as possible. Health Care professionals employed by Derbyshire Community Services Foundation Trust (DCHSFT) have a responsibility to promote the benefits of immunisation in a consistent, clear and evidence based way to parents, carers, and young people. The overarching aim of the policy is to therefore support practitioners to fulfil the requirements of their commissioned role in delivering the national universal childhood immunisation programme, alongside any targeted immunisation schedules safely and competently.
