TAPI, in collaboration with the Arizona Department of Health Services Immunization Program, presents free trainings that improve immunization practices in public and private providers’ offices. Participants receive valuable information on immunization friendly office practices, vaccine handling, state requirements, how to give shots and the state immunization registry.

TRAINING ON IMMUNIZATION PRACTICE STRATEGIES  – T.I.P.S.

This free training is based on the National Vaccine Advisory Committee Standards for Pediatric Immunization Practice.

 Who should attend this free training:

1. VFC coordinators from provider offices that want to improve vaccine delivery systems and reduce vaccine wastage;
2. Those who train/orient new staff; and
3. Those who administer vaccines

This is a great opportunity for employees who may need training in these areas and for those offices who have been identified to need follow-up. Nurses, Medical Assistants and any essential personnel involved with vaccine delivery in your practice may also attend, including Physicians and Nurse Practitioners!

For questions regarding T.I.P.S., please contact 602-288-7568. We hope to see you this summer in 2017!
