Now that you know how many patients you are going to book and how many hours of immunization clinic you are planning for, it is time to prepare for the clinics.
Determine Roles
Having clear roles for each immunization clinic will help ensure a smooth day. This may feel like overkill for a smaller clinic, but these are the common roles to consider who would have these roles (and each person can have more than one role):
Roles for Preparing your Immunization Clinic:
Within your office immunization clinic there are a few key roles to consider and likely these will be obvious:
- Immunization Clinic Lead – plans scope, estimates capacity, etc. (if you are reading this, it is probably you).
- Pre-visit navigator / Visit scheduler – reaches out to orient patients and book them into the immunization clinic.
- Supply organizer – ensures all supplies are ready prior to each clinic from vaccine doses to PPE.
Roles for the Immunization Clinics:
For each Immunization Clinic you run, you want to have clearly defined roles so everyone knows who is responsible for what. We suggest filling out a list and posting this in places where people will know who is doing what activities for the clinic. This is especially important if different people are working different Immunization Clinic shifts and roles may change.
Fill these roles within your broader team, including allied health, office assistants, other connected clinicians, and even volunteers from your community. Recruiting people you might not think of for specific roles for the immunization clinic is a great way to build capacity (e.g. a dietitian can be a great person to do the pre-visit screening).
PHAC has a very robust roles list, which is suitable for larger, stand alone clinics. For more detail on scope of roles, please look here:
Ensure Sufficient Supplies Ordered
For each immunization clinic you run, you will need to ensure you have sufficient supplies. This includes: touchless thermometers (for screening), PPE, cleaning supplies, forms, and immunization supplies (syringes, etc.). An example checklist is provided below:
PHAC has a more robust clinic supply list, included here for reference:
Determine Documentation Requirements
Confirm how everyone will be documenting for the immunization clinic and share this across the whole team. There are five areas for consideration:
- Patient Discussion on Immunization – Times contacted about the immunization clinic, their eligibility and desire to receive the vaccine (or not). This is prior to the immunization clinic day and important for follow up.
- Patient Consent – PHAC recommends written consent prior to the immunization. They have provided an example.
- Patient Surveys – If you plan to have a specific patient survey, these should be ready. The immunization clinic may want to capture information prior to the immunization (e.g. screening for allergies, etc) or post-immunization (e.g. feedback).
- Clinical Charting – determine who will chart and where. Elements of charting should be simplified and standardized for expediency but include process, brief history, review of systems, vaccine information (e.g type, lot #, location), etc. Consider an EMR template.
- Public Health Documentation – Public health in each province has additional documentation requirements to record who has received which doses of vaccine, etc.
Plan Immunization Documentation in Your EMR
There are several options for documenting in your office. We recommend using the immunization section of your EMR. For more information, we have outlined different approaches and provided more detail here.
Alberta’s Primary Care Immunization Documentation
See Alberta’s Immunization Policy
Confirm as a team your documentation practices and workflow. Direct entry into IDSM may minimize number of forms used in your clinic. Batching data entry may facilitate patient flow but require the use of more forms. Agree where the forms will be kept and how they will be completed and entered into provincial reporting systems recognizing the expected and required timelines.
Record of COVID-19 vaccination is expected to be completed at point of care and submitted through IDSM within 1 day (required to be submitted within 7 days). A patient immunization record and aftercare sheet is expected to be completed at point of care and provided to the patient before departure.
BC’s Primary Care Immunization Documentation
BC will have an online reporting for immunizations. Plus regular documentation requirements for the visit will be needed in your own EMR.
Manitoba’s Primary Care Immunization Documentation
All COVID-19 vaccine doses must be reported within two (2) business days of administration to the client/patient via:
- The Claims Processing System (CPS) for fee-for-service (FFS) physicians and, non-FFS physicians/nurse practitioners via shadow billing.
- NOTE: The PHIMS system will be used by pharmacists and other providers (as determined by Manitoba Health and Seniors Care).
- NOTE 2: for information on remuneration, contact your professional association.
All patient/client immunization records must include (at minimum) the client/patient personal health identification number (PHIN), the location of administration, provider, date of administration, vaccine product, lot number, reason for immunization and any additional regulatory requirements.
Record doses administered to persons without a PHIN via the appropriate inputting inform available at:

2nd Dose Follow-up Plan
The second dose is key to the success rates of our current vaccines and this is often where people do not follow up. So, before you run your clinic, know what your multi-pronged approach will be to encouraging and following up for that second immunization.
Strategies to Ensure Second Dose Follow Up
Have Adequate Signs
The COVID-19 immunization is both exciting and anxiety provoking for some. Clear education and clear directions, including signs throughout the clinic, will help keep people calm and understanding the processes. These are particularly important if you are changing the normal flow of patients through the clinic.
Signs should mark entrances, mask wearing, sanitizing practices, patient flow, waiting areas, and exits. We have provided simple, generic signs as letter-sized PDFs that you can download and print:
Childcare
Consider how to offer safe childcare when needed for patients to ensure that people with kids can come to get vaccinations and they have no childcare options. Some families do not want their children observing the immunization, so a safe and socially distanced space for staff, parents, and guardians to observe the children is recommended. You should confirm this in the pre-visit check.
Washrooms
Assume and plan that at least one patient will need to use the washroom during the observation time. These should be clearly marked for patient flow. If the washroom absolutely must be used during the observation period, the patient should notify the observer.
Staff Training
In preparation for running your clinic, consider any additional training that might be helpful:
- Vaccination training – some staff (e.g. LPNs) can receive extra training to give vaccines in some jurisdictions. This may increase capacity.
- CPR training – there should be at least one person with up to date CPR training.
- Anaphylaxis management – ensure that there is a clear protocol for anaphylaxis.
Alberta’s Training Opportunities
A checklist of resource and educational materials have been developed to support clinic teams. It is recommended that clinic team members review educational materials related to key process steps that they will be supporting. Clinics may wish to maintain a record of team member engagement with the educational materials.

Create a What to Expect Sheet for Patients
Technically part of the next step, but having information for your patients on what to expect as part of the immunization clinic, before and after, is really important for a smooth running day. Make sure you have an orientation sheet ready to put on your website, put in your waiting room, and to send out to patients before the clinic.
Develop Your Clinic Checklists
Lastly, we recommend a set of Immunization Clinic checklists that summarizes the pieces above that can be quickly reviewed before the start of your clinic. We have provided word template you can use or adapt below:
