On the Bookshelf — Vaccinating Adults: A Step-by-Step Guide
Published on
Vaccine Update for Healthcare ProvidersAlthough the “On the bookshelf” column typically describes books available through bookstores, Amazon or a publishing company, this month’s feature is a bit different. Vaccinating Adults: A Step-by-Step Guide is a noteworthy, book-length, free publication offered online by our colleagues at Immunize.org.
As the title describes, this publication is focused on adult immunizations. The 142-page guide includes chapters, such as:
- Getting started
- Setting up for vaccination services
- Vaccine storage and handling
- Deciding whom to vaccinate
- Administering vaccines
- Documentation and related issues
- Financial considerations
- How to bill for adult immunizations
Whether you are just starting to administer vaccines to adults or you have been doing so for years, this guide is a must-have reference for your clinic.
