Australian Immunisation Handbook
Morpht supported the Department of Health's initiative to convert a 500+ page Handbook to an online resource by building the Australian Immunisation Handbook website. Structuring the information into inter-related content types for 24 diseases, 11 related antigens, 61 related vaccines, vaccine administration tables and instructional figures. We then made available a number of live XML feeds from this central resource to support a native mobile application, the Catch-up Calculator.

Overview
What started as a printed publication guiding health professionals in the safe and effective use of vaccines, the Australian Immunisation Handbook became the staple reference for health professionals in managing children’s immunisation. Updates to the 500+ page Handbook meant that health professionals found it cumbersome to keep track of the latest source of truth, even more so when they’re on the move.
The outcome
All medical practitioners now have access to a centralised digital resource of up-to-date immunisation information and protocols. With access to a set of integrated set of tools in the shape of a responsive website, a native app and a supporting Catch-up Calculator Web app, practitioners have all the latest and most accurate information they need at their fingertips.
