Best Practice: As there is currently no option to record a declined immunisation, The Preventative Health notification window will open and users can untick the 'Influenza Vaccination' item if required
Zedmed: As there is currently no option to record a declined immunisation, the FLU App will open the patient notes to allow the clinician to record the details in the notes.
