Teaching Plan: Immunizations and Vaccinations
Introduction
In an immunization schedule, provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, eighteen diseases are marked as possible to prevent with the help of appropriate vaccinations. Vaccinations for children (birth six years) and teenagers/young adults (seven years eighteen years) are scheduled differently, according to their age.
Birth Six Years Immunization
Overview
In this teaching session, parents and clients will be educated about the needed vaccinations, diseases that can develop during this age without vaccination, their impact on children, and the possible complications.
Goals
After this session, parents (and their children) will be aware of the current vaccinations, their safety, and the ability to prevent diseases. Parents are expected to agree to vaccinate their children.
Content
The content will include descriptions of diseases and vaccination schedule:
-
Birth Hepatitis B vaccine
-
First and second months HepB vaccine (CDC, 2016)
-
Second month Rotavirus (RV), Diphtheria (DTaP), Haemophilus influenza (type b) (Hib), Pneumococcal (PCV), Polio (IPV)
-
Four months same vaccines, expect HepB
-
Six months same vaccines plus Influenza (yearly) (CDC, 2016)
-
Twelve/fifteen/eighteen months same plus Mumps (MMR), Chickenpox (Varicella), Hepatitis A (HepA) (two doses of HepA are recommended for better protection)
-
Nineteen-twenty three months / two-three years Influenza (yearly)
-
Four-six years DTaP, IPV, Influenza, MMR, Varicella (CDC, 2016)
It is essential to address the existing prejudices against vaccinations, such as beliefs that they can cause chronic diseases or are only implemented because of the financial profit of medical facilities. Moreover, if religious beliefs of parents influence their decision, they need to be approached with respect and caution.
Additional information about the ways that diseases spread by (air, direct contact, contact with blood, etc.) can be included if parents believe that their children are unlikely to be exposed to the disease. In this case, additional statistics about disease spread can be provided.
Materials
Presentations, slide shows, lectures, video lectures, podcasts (audio and visual) can be used during the lessons. Articles from journals and researches that prove the safety of vaccinations need to be presented to parents who are reluctant to vaccinate their child. For children, game playing and role-playing can be engaged to explain the diseases and vaccinations.
Evaluation
Evaluation of the efficiency can be completed by observing parents and childrens willingness to be vaccinated. Nursing professionals can also assess patients knowledge of disease contamination symptoms and possible complications.
Seven Eighteen Years Immunization
Overview
During these lessons, parents, teenagers, and young adults will be provided with information about diseases and vaccinations that need to be done during this period. Using fact sheets and other materials, learners will be educated about the symptoms and possible complications of the diseases.
Goals
To educate parents and their teenage/young adult children about diseases, their symptoms, and complications. To raise awareness of the possible consequences of non-vaccination both for parents and their children. Parents and their children are expected to agree to be vaccinated.
Content
Information about vaccination schedules, diseases, their causes, and complications will be provided to patients.
-
Seven-eight years Influenza (yearly), TDaP, HepB, IPV, MMR, Varicella, Hepatitis A (if missed), Meningococcal (MenACWY), Pneumococcal, Hepatitis A (if at increased risk)
-
Nine-ten years same vaccines plus Human papillomavirus (HPV) (if at increased risk/willing to get the vaccine after consultation with the provider), MenACWY, MenB, Pneumococcal, Hepatitis A (if at increased risk) (CDC, 2017)
-
Eleven-twelve years Influenza (yearly), TDaP, HPV, MenACWY (recommended), MenB, Pneumococcal, Hepatitis A (if at increased risk), HepB, IPV, MMR, Varicella (if missed)
-
Thirteen-fifteen years Influenza (yearly), TDaP, HPV, MenACWY (if missed), MenB, Pneumococcal, Hepatitis A (if at risk), HepB, IPV, MMR, Varicella (if missed) (CDC, 2017)
-
Sixteen-eighteen years Influenza (yearly), TDaP, HPV, MenACWY (if missed), MenACWY (boost shot for 16 y.o.), MenB (may be vaccinated if at risk/willing to), Pneumococcal, Hepatitis A (if at risk), HepB, IPV, MMR, Varicella (if missed)
The same prejudices and beliefs need to be addressed if parents or children are unwilling to be vaccinated. Moreover, the awareness of the HPV can be relatively low in teenagers and their parents. Additional information about the HPV, cervical, and gynecological cancer needs to be provided to ensure that participants are aware of possible conditions and consequences of non-vaccination.
Materials
Different materials, such as handouts, presentations, websites, fact sheets, figures, tables, and video/audio podcasts can be used in order to educate learners about diseases. Krawczyk et al. (2012) point out that both written and video interventions are equally efficient in educating participants about HPV.
Teenagers and young adults can also receive articles from magazines and journals that will provide proof of vaccines safety. If they are willing to discuss vaccines and diseases, other medical professionals can be engaged to explain how vaccines work, why they are safe and necessary.
A fact sheet about all diseases mentioned in the content will be provided to participants.
Evaluation
Participants knowledge about vaccines and diseases will be assessed by a nursing professional. If provided information is persuading, participants will agree to be vaccinated or vaccinate their children.
