The Recommended sites for childhood vaccination poster, developed by the National Centre for Immunisation Research and Surveillance (NCIRS), has been updated to include the latest pneumococcal program changes for children.
This A3 resource illustrates the recommended sites and routes of administration for vaccines recommended and funded under the National Immunisation Program as well as vaccines funded by certain state and territories.
The poster also includes a checklist for preparing for vaccination, needle size recommendations and additional clinical advice.
The poster – which is available to download in colour or black-and-white – can be accessed here.
