Standing Drug Orders

Model Standing Drug Orders (SDOs) have been developed by the Immunisation Section, SA Health, for use by nurses in South Australia providing a community immunisation program run by a local council or health service. The SDOs are consistent with the NHMRC Australian Immunisation Handbook – 9th Edition 2008 to assist immunisation nurses as best practice principles.
