Learning Objectives By the end of this module you will be able to: Explain the importance of risk perception for immunization decision-making. Respond appropriately following an assessment of client knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs regarding immunization. Deliver clear, concise messages about the risks of vaccine-preventable diseases and the benefits/risks of vaccines. Provide guidance to clients so they can correctly identify credible sources of information on immunization and vaccines. 3. Introduction Public concern regarding vaccine safety can reduce vaccine coverage and result in resurgence of vaccine-preventable diseases. As trusted information sources, health care providers have a vital role in the continued success of immunization programs. Providers must have skill and expertise, not only in the principles and practices of immunization but also in effective communications techniques. 4. Communication Concepts 4.1 Nurses: Trusted Sources of Information Figure 1 Leger Marketing 2006 Survey Professional Barometer A 2006 survey determined that Nurses are trusted by 95% of Canadians (Leger Marketing). Other surveys have shown that a recommendation by a health care provider is a significant factor for anyone making decision to immunize. As trusted information sources, you have a vital role in the continued success of immunization programs. Percentage of Canadians who trust...

3 4.2 How We Communicate Communication is not just what we say but how we say it. Page 2 Figure 2 How We Communicate Content 7% Content This is the actual words we use Non Verbal This is our Body Language Non Verbal 55% Tone 38% Tone This is how we say things For more information about body language see Appendix A. 4.3 Principles of Effective Communication Adopt a client centered approach Respect differences of opinion about immunizations Present clear, current, evidence based messages regarding vaccines and immunizations Represent the benefits and risks of vaccines fairly and openly Use plain language 4.4 The ASK Approach The ASK approach uses these principles of effective communication and provides a framework for talking with clients about immunizations. The rest of this module explores each component of the ASK approach: Assess the Audience and Acknowledge Concerns Steer the Conversation Know your Stuff
4 Page 3 5. Assess the Audience In order to communicate about immunizations effectively, you must know how your client perceives the risk associated with immunizations. Clarify with client what their concerns are. This knowledge will guide you to choose the most relevant information for your client. 5.1 Perception of Risk An individual's perception of immunization risks is influenced by a number of factors. Experience Vaccine preventable diseases are reduced or wiped out and therefore the public does not need immunizations Personal Movement to a more natural and healthy lifestyle that stimulates the immune system naturally rather than artificially Mass Media Sensational reporting of an issue may not be grounded in science Information over-load Difficulty in deciding what vaccine information is correct 5.2 Risky Events Events can be described as less or more risky based upon the following categories: Table 1 - Risky Events Less Risky Events Risky Events Familiar Involve a natural process Under an individual s control Voluntary nature Involve a decision to avoid something Unfamiliar Man-made process Loss of control Mandatory Involve a decision to do something rather than avoid something A decision to have your child immunized falls into the "high risk" category for many parents because vaccines are: unfamiliar; man-made process; involve a decision to do something rather than avoid something. A higher perceived risk may lead to less commitment to immunizations.
5 5.3 Know your Audience Assess the level of commitment to immunization. Page 4 Figure 3 Know your audience Commitment to Immunization Believers Highest commitment Relaxed High commitment Cautious Moderate to low commitment Unconvinced or Conscientious Objector (CO) No commitment Low Risk Perception of Immunization Risk High Risk 6. Steer the Conversation Steer the conversation based upon your assessment of the client: - Believer - Relaxed - Cautious - Unconvinced/Conscientious Objector (CO)
6 6.1 Believer Page 5 Beliefs Vaccines are safe Vaccines are important What they might ask? Safety Side Effects Believers Highest Commitment to Immunizations Follows full immunization recommendations Lowest need for information Resources Actively seeks information when needed Provide take home material Encouraging Dialogue Stress that benefits outweigh the risks
7 6.2 Relaxed Page 6 Beliefs Vaccines are safe Don t feel guilt or worry about immunizations What might they ask? Less likely to ask questions Relaxed High commitment to immunization Low/moderate information needed Resources Less likely to ask for detailed/research information Let them know about resources Encouraging Dialogue Don t overlook unasked questions Stress vaccine benefits
8 6.3 Cautious Page 7 Beliefs Sceptical Wonder if disease protection necessary What might they ask? Benefits of natural diseases Need to get all vaccines? Cautious Moderate to low commitment to immunizations High information needs Resources Actively seeks information Offer more reading Encouraging Dialogue Needs extra reassurance Emphasize benefits of immunization Present a balanced view
9 Page Unconvinced/Conscientious Objector (CO) Beliefs Unlikely to change mind May influence other parents decision What might they ask? May not ask questions Unconvinced/Conscientious Objector (CO) No commitment to immunization Resources Ask if wants more information Inform if outbreak situation re: exclusion from school Encouraging Dialogue Discuss risks of not immunizing Be cautious in engaging in lengthy debate; be prepared to stop the conversation Never too late to immunize if you change your mind 7. Know your Stuff 7.1 Evaluating health resources There is a rich source of information on child and youth health, but this information can also be a source of confusion and contradiction. High-quality information should be objective and based on scientific evidence.

Studies have provided the following information regarding information on the internet. the single keyword "vaccination" yielded 40% pro-vaccination sites and 60% anti-vaccination sites. the single keyword "immunization" yielded 98% pro-vaccination sites and 2% anti-vaccination sites. The following are trusted internet sites:
