If you have not yet completed your site acknowledgement on the FDP Supply Dashboard, please do so as soon as possible as this is the vital first step to be completed in the allocation and ordering process. Full details are available in the supply and ordering guidance.
For queries, please contact your ICB in the first instance using the escalation template.
As the vaccines do not come with needles, please refer to Meningitis B FAQs for CPs (1) – East of England Screening and Immunisation Team – Futures
Please refer to Green-Book-Chapter-4.pdf, page 29-30 which provides recommendations on choice of needle size. Generally, a 25mm 23G (blue) or 25mm 25G (orange) needle would be suitable but other lengths may be required, and an individual assessment should be made.
NHS England cannot make recommendations on specific brands.
Patient information materials can be ordered free of charge from Find public health resources. Users need to register to receive deliveries. If you register as a health professional, you can order 500 to 1,000 copies on the website.
