We use nursing students who are on clinical rotations. We also use MA's if the shots are administered in a location with a physician onsite.
Regardless of licensure we require all non-occ health staff to go through a brief pre-clinic orientation prior to administering shots. It is amazing how many RN's do not properly administer immunizations.

I would like to know if other healthcare organizations use unlicensed personnel to give flu vaccinations.
1. Do you use registered medical assistants to assist with flu vaccinations for your employee population?
2. If not, please describe the types of personnel that you use.
I appreciate your responses.
Thank you,
Kathy
