See how others have helped to Teach Flu a Lesson
Others have successfully completed school-located influenza vaccination (SLIV) clinics. Read about how they did it and how you can improve your own SLIV Clinic.
There are a variety of approaches to conducting an effective School-Located lnfluenza Vaccination (SLIV) clinic. The road map sections entitled “Public Coalition SLIV clinic” are meant to offer foundational information for all program types. The “Buy-and-Bill SLIV clinic” and the “Community Immunizers–Mediated SLIV clinic” models may supplement the baseline model depending upon the unique needs and capabilities of the community executing the program. These 3 approaches offer guidance regarding how to conduct a successful SLIV clinic, along with associated timelines that can be modified as needed.
