Immunisation Pathways Program

Brisbane North PHN is providing a limited number of subsidised registrations* to support general practice nurses to complete an Immunisation Pathway, delivered by the Benchmarque Group.

Immunisation Pathways

Nurses can choose to undertake either of the Immunisation Pathways offered:

The Immunisation Clinical Pathway, designed for clinicians who are required to administer vaccinations under the direct order of a Medical Officer as part of their scope of practice, or

The Immunisation Endorsement Pathway, designed for Registered Nurses and Midwives who want the ability to immunise independent of a Medical Officer. The learning is specific to the state or territory you work in and involves a combination of online and face-to-face learning.

What's involved?

• approval from your manager to participate
• a minimum of three months of employment experience working with clients in primary healthcare
• online learning modules and assessments including up to 112 CPD study hours
• attend a half day face-to-face workshop (please see further information below)
• undertake a workplace activity.
