CQC guidance on registering for flu and Covid-19 vaccination programmes
CQC guidance on registration: Flu and Covid-19 vaccination arrangements was updated on 3 September 2021.
The guidance states that providers may deliver flu, and potential coronavirus (Covid-19) vaccinations, in a different way to their usual winter vaccination delivery model.
There is an expectation that providers will structure their vaccination service to meet high demand and the specific requirements set out by manufacturers of individual vaccines, such as cold chain preservation.
Providers will need to consider how they will be arranging vaccination services. Click here for CQC guidance on registering with them.
