Work as a Team to Prevent Vaccine Errors

You'll need to stay alert for errors with COVID-19 vaccines...due to boosters, pediatric doses, catch-up with other vaccines, etc.

Planning. Increased demand can be a recipe for mix-ups. Try to balance the load. For example, federal guidance authorizes qualified techs and interns to administer COVID-19 and flu vaccines.

Train your team to rely on checklists, charts, etc...not memory. Have a point person update these tools promptly when changes occur.
