General Practice Support for Immunisation
At MPHN, we work closely with general practices to support the safe delivery of immunisation services across our region. From cold chain compliance to data reporting, we’re here to provide tailored support that helps your team deliver high-quality, evidence-based care.
How we support your practice
We assist general practices to:
Maintain high standards of cold chain management in accordance with the National Vaccine Storage Guidelines – Strive for 5 to ensure vaccines remain potent and effective.
Deliver immunisation services aligned with the National Immunisation Program and the NSW Immunisation Schedule.
Adopt sustainable data practices for reporting immunisation encounters to the Australian Immunisation Register (AIR).
Improve child immunisation coverage rates by supporting reviews of overdue vaccinations and implementing effective recall and reminder systems.
Immunisation toolkit for general practice
Our dedicated team provides practice-level support, tools, and education to assist with:
Vaccine Cold Chain management
We offer in-practice education, assessments, and practical advice to ensure your cold chain systems are robust and compliant. From fridge monitoring to breach protocols, we help you confidently store and manage vaccines.
Data management and AIR reporting
Accurate reporting to the AIR is critical to avoid unnecessary follow-ups, protect practice payments, and ensure children and families receive timely care. We provide training and hands-on support to streamline immunisation data entry and help staff meet reporting obligations.
Schedule and catch-up management
Our support includes guidance on managing the immunisation schedule, administering catch-up vaccines, and navigating complex vaccine eligibility and timing.
Whether you’re looking to boost immunisation coverage, improve record-keeping, or strengthen your cold chain practices, MPHN is here to help.
