Presented by the Nevada Immunization Coalition, this FREE training is for immunization providers - physicians, nurses, medical assistants, and office staff. This program is approved for 1 nursing CEU. Please join us in person or via teleconference to meet local and state immunization partners, and learn what other provider offices are doing to efficiently and effectively immunize patients. Future topics may include:
