To which appointment should the injured team member bring their immunisation records?

• A. GP appointment
• B. A&E appointment
• C. Dentist appointment
• D. OHS appointment

Answer: (D)

Immunisation records are most appropriately handled by the occupational health service. When a team member is injured at work, the occupational health team already keeps vaccination histories for staff and can quickly determine if tetanus protection is up to date and whether other vaccines (like hepatitis B) are needed given the workplace exposure. Bringing the records to an occupational health appointment allows immediate assessment and appropriate follow-up, and it keeps the employee’s health information and workplace safety documentation together.

Other options are less suitable because urgent treatment in A&E focuses on the injury itself rather than vaccine history, a GP can review health records but the formal management of occupational vaccination status is usually coordinated through occupational health, and a dentist handles dental issues rather than systemic immunisation records.
