No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Ideally, applicants will have completed the PEIP for HCSW vaccinators course, where they will have an increased knowledge of vaccinations and service delivery. They must be willing to undertake further training in relation to the administration of different vaccines going forward to incorporate the whole vaccination programme for all ages.
