Seasonal Influenza Vaccination & Children with Special Healthcare Needs, Pregnant Women,
and Adults with Disabilities
We Need Your Help!
The National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) is looking for people to participate in a key
informant interview on current methods of promoting
influenza immunizations and the gaps in measuring seasonal influenza vaccination rates among children with special healthcare needs, pregnant women, and adults with disabilities.
Such people are at greater risk of serious complications from influenza, so it is an important community-based strategy to assure services for them. Your
participation in this telephone interview will help inform a report on this topic.
Why Participate?
Your opinions and experiences will be incorporated into a report that will help practitioners and public health professionals
better understand strategies, tools, and policies that will improve seasonal influenza vaccination rates among children with special healthcare needs, pregnant women, and adults with disabilities.
Who Can Participate?
NACCHO is looking for local health department staff who are knowledgeable about working with children with special healthcare needs,
pregnant women, and/or adults with disabilities and immunizations.
When and Where?
The 45-minute interview will take place
in February 2014
at a time that is convenient for you. It can be done from any location where you have
access to a phone.
Interested?
Please fill out a quick questionnaire about yourself
and one of our staff will contact you if you are selected:
