Clinical narrative: Please see accompanied occurrence report form. Pt spouse phoned in this am to state that pt had an adverse reaction to the imm. received on 11/26/08.

She states that pt. had swelling and redness from the elbow to the shoulder and that the area was hot to touch. She states that she gave him Benadryl and that she was concerned as the patient had lost mobility to the affected arm for 3 days. The patient did not seek medical attention. When I offered an appt. for eval. of the arm she refused stating that the patient was better. She stated that she was concerned because the FLUZONE and PNEUMOVAX shots were given in the same arm and shouldn't have. I encouraged her that I appreciated her concern and that I planned to speak with the nurse, the physician involved as well as Administration to let them know of the incident. I also encouraged her that we would discuss this issue at our next nurse meeting and that maybe a better thing to do in the future is to request for the pt. to come back in a week for the 3rd imm. injection (Patient had BOOSTRIX , PNEUMOVAX AND FLUZONE shot ordered on 11/26/08). She thanked me for my time and I also told her that I would additionally contact VAERS to see if anything additionally needed to be done 12/5 Adverse reaction state # contacted. 12/9/08 VAERS form completed and mailed.
