Pre-vaccination screening

Pre-vaccination screening is a process where healthcare providers assess an individual's health history and current condition before administering a vaccine. This involves asking questions about allergies, past illnesses, immune status, or any medications that might affect the vaccine's safety or effectiveness. The goal is to identify any potential risks or contraindications to ensure that the vaccination is safe and appropriate for the person. By doing this, healthcare providers can prevent adverse reactions and determine if any special precautions are needed, making the vaccination process safer and more tailored to the individual's health profile.
