What must be followed when administering immunizations aside from certification?

When administering immunizations, following specific protocols for administration is crucial beyond just having the necessary certification. These protocols ensure that vaccines are administered safely and effectively. They encompass various guidelines, including proper storage and handling of vaccines, understanding contraindications and the appropriate techniques for vaccination, as well as documentation of the immunization.

Adhering to these protocols helps maintain public safety, enhances patient care, ensures compliance with legal requirements, and preserves the integrity of the immunization process. Thus, healthcare professionals are required to understand and implement these specific protocols to uphold the standards of safety and efficacy in immunization practices.
