Why every healthcare worker should get the flu shot
The most common reasons healthcare personnel refuse the vaccine include such issues as fear of shots, fear of getting the flu from the shot, or lack of belief in its effectiveness. This training program can help improve your employee immunization participation rates by refuting these and other objections, and by reminding them of the benefits of annual flu vaccination. It gives science-based evidence that the flu vaccine is the most effective means of preventing flu transmission, thereby protecting patients from flu-related complications.
The program comes on a CD-Rom in Microsoft PowerPoint, and is accompanied by a packet of supplemental materials that include:
- An introduction that states the program’s goals and objectives, and gives the presenter a few guidelines for presenting the program.
- Hard copies of all handouts
- A written competency assessment
- An answer key for the competency assessment
- A presenter’s program evaluation that you may fill out to let us know your thoughts and ideas on the program
- A certificate of completion that you may hand to each of your participants upon completion of the program
