Great article this morning in the Sydney Morning Herald, with our Practice Manager Michelle Horswood talking about the benefits of shortening vaccine dose intervals in kids.
As with any medical treatment, any questions you have about your particular circumstances should be discussed with your doctor.

Doctors cut child dose interval to three weeks amid back to school anxiety Some Sydney doctors have elected to give childrenâs coronavirus vaccines at a shorter interval in an attempt to have more kids double-dosed by the first days of school.
It was our pleasure Katrina and Daniel....Train it Medical has certainly done an amazing job supporting GP practices.... we are privileged to offer you this important service.... thank you so very much for this generous show of gratitude... we will enjoy sharing it. đ¸
My goodness... an amazing expression of gratitude arrived today from Katrina and Daniel from Train IT Medical. Thank you so much for this huge box of very special treats..... we will enjoy sharing them. It was our pleasure to vaccinate each of you!
Weâre so proud of the great work Michelle and the team here are doing!
How lucky was I to get my from our educator - Michelle Horswood and her incredible team at OâConnell Street Clinic đ đ
As a Practice Manager and one of Australiaâs most experienced nurse immunisers, Michelle has been in the trenches since day 1. She has led with calm positivity through the ever-changing rules, restrictions and the challenges of running a medical clinic in Covid times (in CBD Sydney no less).
Yet, from day 1, Michelle has also continually shared every lesson learnt, joined me in training thousands of Australian practice staff in how to run vaccination clinics and manage in this Covid era. She constantly shares learnings and resources for the benefit of others.
I first met Michelle when she was PM of another practice many years ago and it was that impressive onsite experience that led me to invite her to join and help educate others in Practice Management and Nurse Leadership.
I am beyond thrilled to report that - as I expected - Michelleâs own Vaccine Clinic was an EFFICIENCY DREAM! It is a living example of an efficient, systematic approach with heart. Every step felt calm, smooth and caring, And yes, profitable.
I am not easily impressed and I am absolutely awe-struck!
It was everything I could do not to hug this awesome woman not just for giving us vaccines but being so generous in sharing her expertise.
Maybe after dose 2 a hug will be okay.
I feel so fortunate to have Michelle on team and look forward to my next onsite visit and will share more learnings soon.
Let us know if you missed our webinars and we will share.
Locking down again now, beyond grateful to all of you working so hard to keep us well and focusing on the hopeful future that vaccines bring us.
