The HSE has updated guidance for people looking to become vaccinators, following concerns raised this week by healthcare workers.

It comes in the wake of an Irish Examiner story that highlighted the cumbersome process, with complaints raised about the documents required, including where a registered surgeon was asked for her birth cert and Junior Certificate results.
