Receive free Authorised Nurse Immuniser in NSW training and administer vaccinations independent of a medical officer.
Registered nurses who work in general practice or residential aged care homes in South Western Sydney have the opportunity for 100 per cent cost reimbursed training to become an Authorised Nurse Immuniser in NSW.
