What you'll learn in this expert session

Fever and pain are known to be side-effects following standard vaccinations in young children. But which vaccines are more likely to cause these problems? Can the risk of side effects be minimised? And how best should side-effects be managed once they do occur? In this presentation, Dr Victoria Hayes, General Practitioner, answers all these questions and provides the latest, evidence-based recommendations to support nurses in confidently managing this everyday aspect of paediatric care.
