Northern Territory
Specialist immunisation services provide specialised immunisation advice to healthcare professionals. These services have specialised nursing and medical staff to provide clinical advice on immunisation for children with complex or unusual medical backgrounds or who have had an adverse event following immunisation (AEFI). They can support children who have previously been affected by an AEFI by assessing and planning for immunisation and are able to answer complex questions and concerns relevant to an individual’s experience and circumstances.
In the Northern Territory, specialist immunisation services may be available at the Royal Darwin Hospital or Alice Springs Hospital. For further information contact NT Immunisation.
