Staff Health Coordinators around Australia face similar challenges rolling out influenza vaccination programs, so we engaged IQVIA research to explore what strategies were most effective in maximising uptake of their program. This document summarises the findings to inspire change by sharing best practice.

A recent review analysed the success of various interventions to increase vaccination coverage in healthcare facilities around the world. The review highlighted that what makes the difference in exceeding 80% vaccination uptake is a result of policies, incentives and combined interventions. We’ve taken these specific interventions and looked at how they are being applied both locally and around the world.

This short presentation by Dr Rahul Joshi provides an overview of the 2024 influenza season, what the predictions are for the 2025 season and the importance of influenza vaccination for healthcare workers.  

Assoc Prof Holly Seale, Social Scientist from UNSW gives us a brief insight into how to best communicate with healthcare workers in order to improve acceptance and uptake of influenza vaccination.

The Melbourne Vaccine Education Centre (MVEC) have developed some fantastic content that we felt would be beneficial for Staff Health Coordinators.  This covers managing needle phobia, vaccine hesitancy and correct vaccination technique.

We wanted to bring your attention to the newly developed Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) Guidelines, developed by the RACGP in partnership with APNA. These new IPC Guidelines provide updated guidance on planning and implementing high-quality IPC standards for general practices and allied care practices.  This includes staff immunisation policy and procedures, plus vaccinations for health professionals.

The National Centre for Immunisation Research and Surveillance (NCIRS) have recently launched influenza resources for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and immunisation providers.  Rather than reinvent the wheel, we wanted to bring these resources to your attention, as many healthcare workers are of First Nations descent.
