Other resources relating to the hexavalent DTaP/IPV/Hib/HepB vaccine and the selective neonatal hepatitis B programme, Meningococcal B (MenB) vaccination programme and pneumococcal infant vaccination programme including information for healthcare practitioner guidance are also available.
Childhood immunisation eligibility calculator
There is a calculator available as an MS excel file you can download and use to enter a child’s birthdate. When you enter the birthdate, the calculator will show which vaccines should be given and at what time.
This calculator assumes vaccinations are administered in line with the routine UK childhood immunisation schedule. It is intended to support clinicians but does not replace clinical judgement or clinical decision making. If any vaccinations are missed, delayed or incomplete, do not use this calculator and instead refer to the UKHSA algorithm document
