Overview

This review addresses vaccine uptake and challenges in childhood immunisations for healthcare professionals, highlighting implications for practice.

Key Points

  • Vaccine uptake decline has led to a resurgence of vaccine-preventable diseases in the UK, prompting urgent action.
  • Immunocompromised individuals and intercurrent illnesses complicate the vaccination process for healthcare providers.
  • Planned changes to the vaccination schedule increase the complexity of administering childhood vaccines.
  • Addressing parental concerns about vaccine safety is vital, although not covered in depth in this article.
