Viewing Due Vaccines

The due vaccines card shows upcoming and overdue vaccinations from the National Immunisation Program (NIP), helping identify which vaccines a patient should receive.
How to View

- Confirm green Identified AIR badge
- Find the Due Vaccines card in the sidebar
Status Badges
Each due vaccine has a colour-coded badge indicating urgency:
- Overdue (red) — vaccine is past its due date, administer as soon as possible
- Upcoming (yellow) — vaccine is due soon, schedule an appointment
- Future (green) — vaccine is scheduled but not yet due
What Each Entry Shows
- Vaccine name — human-readable name mapped from AIR code
- Due date — when the vaccine should be administered
- Dose number — position in the vaccination series
How Due Vaccines Are Calculated
AIR calculates due vaccines based on:
- Patient's date of birth
- Previous vaccinations recorded in AIR
- NIP schedule (standard or enhanced for Indigenous patients / medical risk groups)
- Minimum dosing intervals
Due vaccines only shows NIP schedule vaccines. Non-NIP vaccines (travel, occupational) are not included.
No Due Vaccines
If the card shows no due vaccines, the patient is up to date with their NIP schedule for their age.
