WEBINAR: Catch-Up of Routine and School-Based Immunizations for School-Aged Children and Adolescents
Presented by: Public Health Ontario
The COVID-19 pandemic has posed significant challenges to the delivery of routine and recommended immunizations, including limited public health capacity to deliver school-based immunization programs leaving many children and adolescents under-immunized, susceptible to vaccine preventable diseases and in need of catch-up vaccines. Catch-up immunization schedules are available to address missed and/or delayed vaccines but can be challenging to apply in practice.
This session will provide an overview of key principles of immunization record assessment and catch-up for school-aged children and adolescents. Using case studies, participants will gain familiarity with applying Ontario’s publicly funded immunization schedules (routine, school-based and catch-up programs) and extended eligibility guidance to common scenarios. An overview of strategies and successes for training new health unit staff will be provided.
