Immigrants

Key Feature 1a: As part of the periodic health assessment of newly arrived immigrants: Assess vaccination status (as it may not be up to date).
Skill: Clinical Reasoning
Phase: History

Key Feature 1b: As part of the periodic health assessment of newly arrived immigrants: Provide the necessary vaccinations to update their status.
Skill: Clinical Reasoning
​Phase: Treatment

Key Feature 2: Modify the routine immunization schedule in those patients who require it (ex: those who are immunocompromised, those who have allergies). 
Skill: Clinical Reasoning, Selectivity
Phase: Treatment

Okay so disclaimer off the top: I haven't had to actually do this yet. But, if/when I do, I can thank my champion the Rourke Baby Record again for giving me an easy to find link to as much easily searchable information on each scheduled vaccine as my patient-centred heart desires. The Government of Canada has created a Canadian Immunization Guide that is hyperlinked AF to all of the questions that I at least could think of when figuring out how to vaccinate patients who are immunocompromised or who have allergies. It also provides information on how to provide catch-up vaccinations and vaccinations to special populations such as those immigrating from abroad.
