Patients with Needle Phobia
A fear of needles or vaccination is not an uncommon occurrence. Lynne is an expert in handling these situations with empathy and understanding, working with the child and their parents to ensure the patient feels safe and supported. Whilst not always successful, taking extra steps, such as offering calming techniques, minimising waiting times, and creating a welcoming, low-stress environment. The use of open communication and using gentle approaches, we are committed to making the vaccination process as comfortable and positive as possible for every individual we serve.
