Childhood immunisation advisory service for general practitioners.
A study of 270 general practitioners associated with the University of Sydney, Division of Family Medicine, was conducted to examine the need for a childhood immunisation advisory service. Forty-three per cent of respondents had deferred immunisation or altered the schedule of immunisation of children attending them over the previous month. The majority stated that an immunisation advisory service would be beneficial. The preferred option was a telephone service operating from 9 am to 5 pm.
