GP Web-based Immunisation Feedback

• Welcome to this pilot project. Each practice has its own password-protected page containing the practice feedback in comparison to other practices in the PCT.
• At present, we have data for practices in the former Chorley and South Ribble, Fylde, Preston and West Lancashire PCTs. When we have data for all practices, we will reorganise the site to reflect new PCT boundaries.
• If you have mislaid your password, please phone 01772 842101. Practice details do change over time - if we have incorrect details for your practice, please also let us know on the same phone number.
• You can email us at candlhpu@hpa.org.uk

Each practice's page contains 4 spreadsheets:

• D3 uptake (ie children who have completed their primary course of Paediacel by the age of 2 years)
• MMR1 MMR 1st Dose (ie children who have had 1 dose of MMR by the age of 2 years)
• PSB Pre-School Booster (ie children who have received Repevax by the age of 5 years)
• MMR2 MMR 2nd Dose (ie children who have received 2 doses of MMR by the age of 5 years)

Currently we have data for 2005-2006. Any comments would be appreciated.

"Health warning"

The immunisation uptake figures presented here are based on information submitted by the Practice to the Child Health Computer system of the PCT. It is possible that the figures may differ slightly from figures produced by the Practice computer system. The main reasons for this are likely to be:

• The PCT may not have information on all vaccinations given. Please remember - the PCT figures are only as accurate as the information given to them by the Practice.
• The PCT figures depend on vaccinations being given before the child is 2yrs old as required by the Department of Health. Vaccinations given after this are excluded.
• The PCT may not know about children who have recently joined or left the Practice.
  

If the Practice figures differ from those of the PCT, it is a good opportunity to audit the reasons for this.
When looking at the figures please bear in mind that even one or two missed vaccinations can have a large impact on percentage figures in small Practices. Also the figures do not include children who have received single vaccines, unless the PCT have been given this information.
If you have any queries or comments about the figures then please contact us.
