How SCW’s Improving Immunisation Uptake Team (IIUT) initiative began, and how this pioneering service has evolved since its inception. 

In 2020, the UK Government launched an expanded flu vaccination programme for delivery during the 2020/21 flu season. This expanded programme included the introduction of new cohorts eligible for NHS flu vaccination and increased uptake ambitions in existing cohorts.

Health care professionals and their organisations are facing huge operational pressures. By taking action in a number of key areas we can help address some of these front-line challenges.

In line with the triple aim of better health, better care, and better value, systems need to provide holistic person-centred care. They need to empower people to remain independent and well for as long as possible and, when they need care, ensure it is easy to access and well-coordinated across every care setting.

The Care and Health Information Exchange (CHIE), the UK's oldest and largest shared care record, has been developed to improve its functionality between service users.
