SAIS - School Aged Immunisation Service

Overview

We offer routine vaccinations to school aged children in line with the vaccination schedule. These are delivered normally in the school setting, but can also be delivered during a clinic for children that cannot have their vaccines in school or are Electively Home Educated.

Who are we?

We are a team of skilled and experienced nurses and support staff.

What do we do?

We deliver the school-based vaccination programme in Nottinghamshire County and Nottingham City. The programme is offered in schools; however, clinics and home visits are offered when a need is identified.
