1. | Use the vaccine but explain to the caregiver that the site may be quite tender. | |
2. | ![]() |
Discard the vaccine according to agency’s policy. |
3. | Contact the supervisor because this is reportable to the state Board of Public Health. | |
4. | Use the vaccine just for the day and then discard it. |
The vial should be discarded according to agency policy. Administering the vaccine does not protect the safety of the client, and it is unnecessary to report this particular incident to the state Board of Public Health. The core issue of this question is safe handling of vaccinations. Use principles of general medication preparation to make a selection.
