Immunisation Courses for Nurses in Schools
Immunisation Training for Nurses in Schools
At RIVA, our immunisation courses for nurses in schools are designed to help educate, inspire, and instil confidence in all participants. Our passionate trainers maintain senior positions in healthcare to provide the most comprehensive training possible.
We understand that nurse vaccination training, particularly in schools and other educational sectors, doesn’t always take your needs into consideration. That’s why RIVA works with experienced and innovative professionals who know that in some industries, there’s no such thing as a ‘one size fits all’ approach.
“I feel better informed and more supported to address the questions from the children and their parents alike - great course !!”
