FLU 2020 – PSNC Briefing on Seasonal Influenza Vaccination Advanced Service 2020-21
Written by admin on Friday 17th July 2020
This PSNC Briefing provides early guidance for community pharmacy contractors and their teams on the forthcoming service in England
PSNC strongly recommend that contractors use the information in the briefing document below to plan how they may be able to provide a COVID-19 safe service this year.
Contractors must however note that the changes PSNC is seeking to the flu vaccination service, described in the briefing, have not yet been agreed and may never be agreed by NHSE&I.
PSNC will confirm any agreed changes as soon as possible, but in the meantime, the options presented should only be used for planning purposes.
Information and resources to support the service are available on the following PSNC website page:
- http://psnc.org.uk/services-commissioning/advanced-services/flu-vaccination-service/
- #getreadyforflu
Additional and updated resources will be added nearer the start of the service. It is essential to keep up-to-date with latest developments by signing up to regular updates on the PSNC website
This is an Advanced Service and can be provided in any community pharmacy in England, so we recommend all contractors read and review the available information and start to prepare and brief their teams on delivery.
