Outreach Immunisation Service

Picture

The Hauraki PHO Outreach Immunisation Service (OIS) covers the Waikato DHB rohe addressing inequities in health by trying to reach all tamariki who for many reasons are unable to be immunised at their GP practice in a timely fashion. Some of these tamariki may not be enrolled with a general practice. The OIS team provides advice and encourages parents to enrol their tamariki with a general practice to ensure continuity of care.

This service reduces the impact of vaccine preventable disease by increasing the coverage (National Target 95%) and reducing inequalities in the immunisation coverage. Opportunistic immunisations are completed for tamariki who are identified as having missed vaccines from the New Zealand Immunisation Schedule.

OIS provides coordination support for the another OIS provider ( Raukura Hauora o Tainui). We work together to ensure timely immunisations for our tamariki.

The National Immunisation Schedule is the series of vaccines that are offered free to babies, children, adolescents and adults.

Immunisation can protect people against harmful infections, which can cause serious complications including death. Immunisation uses the body’s natural defense mechanism (the immune response) to build resistance in individuals and the community. Read more about the National Immunisation Schedule of free vaccinations on the ​Ministry of Health website.
