Immunisation Courses for Occupational Health Nurses
Immunisation courses allow occupational health nurses to openly discuss the issues they face daily. Vaccines have become a hot button issue. That’s why RIVA’s training goes far beyond simply going through the motions of administering a vaccine.
Our trainers have a deep knowledge of vaccinations and consider the perspectives of academia, patient groups and industry experts alike. This approach allows us to offer vaccination courses online or in-person to give occupational healthcare teams the information they need to communicate with patients.
