Vaccination is important at every stage of life, providing essential health benefits and contributing to individual well-being and public health. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in collaboration with the Public Health Foundation, released a new online training course, Fostering a Culture of Immunization in Your Practice.
From medical assistants to clinicians, it is essential to involve the entire clinical practice in effectively communicating about immunizations to ensure patients receive vaccinations safely and on time. The self-guided online course provides health care professionals with practical strategies and resources to help create a positive culture of immunization in their clinics, ensuring the best possible care for patients and promoting vaccination efforts. It consists of 4 segments:
- Lesson I – Fostering a Culture of Immunization
- Lesson II – Importance of Immunization and Factors Impacting Vaccine Uptake
- Lesson III – 5 Strategies for Fostering a Culture of Immunization
