Cold Chain Risk Management

 
 
The purpose of this education module is to provide any staff member involved in vaccine management with information and continuing education on preventing cold chain problems, minimising their impact where possible, and appropriately managing them if they occur.

Drawing on information from the National Vaccine Storage Guidelines: Strive for 5, it provides information on the five steps of cold chain risk management with particular reference to managing short-term and long-term power failures, and managing a cold chain breach.

The activities at the end of each section test retention of information and encourage reflection on the way the practice operates.
