Education needs of immunization nurses.
A survey was conducted to identify the various levels of responsibility, experience and management tasks of registered nurses (RNs) involved in immunization services in South Australia. Questionnaires were sent to 109 RNs and 94 were completed. Educational deficits were common: 68% of respondents had received no orientation to immunization; 49% indicated five years or less experience in such programs and 86% expressed interest in inservice education.
