I am going to have my flu jab today. I did go a fortnight ago but because I had a temperature they sent me away with instructions to come back when I was well.
Well my temperature is back to normal so here we go again. There is no margin for error because the appointments are two minutes apart, with instructions on the door to 'have your arm ready.'
When I started my nurse training back in 1973, most intramuscular injections were given into the gluteus maximus muscle. Imagine that sign on the door - 'have your bum ready!'
