IMMUNISATIONWhich vaccines can I get from my community pharmacist?Under NSW regulation and authorisation, NSW pharmacists who have undertaken appropriate training are able to administer the following privately funded vaccines:Diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis (whooping cough) (dTpa) – people aged 16 years and overMeasles-mumps-rubella (MMR) – people aged 16 years and overInfluenza – people aged 10 years and overWhy are pharmacists allowed to administer more vaccines?Before 1 January 2019, NSW pharmacists could only administer the influenza vaccine to individuals aged 18 years and over.
The changes now make the influenza vaccine more readily available to people aged 10 years and over, as well as whooping cough and measles vaccines to people aged 16 years and over.
This will be beneficial in areas where access to a GP may be limited.
Grandparents and carers of young children and partners of pregnant women will also benefit with having access to the whooping cough vaccine before having contact with a newborn infant.
Although the MMR vaccine is free for susceptible young adults from GPs, making the vaccine more readily available will benefit those who do not routinely attend a GP.Who should receive diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis (dTpa)?The dTpa (diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough) vaccine is recommended for anyone who wishes to protect themselves against these diseases.
It is particularly important for healthcare workers and anyone who will be having contact with newborn babies to ensure that they receive the booster vaccine against whooping cough.
