Résumé : |
This report, developed by the World Federation of Public Health Associations (WFPHA), highlights strategies to boost vaccination uptake among health professionals. In response to the global challenges posed by declining immunization rates, including within the health community, the WFPHA convened an expert forum, bringing together professionals from diverse health sectors and regions to address the issue and suggest practical solutions.
The report identifies key factors driving successful vaccination campaigns and highlights critical gaps, drawing from a systematic analysis of the literature, case studies from diverse regions, and expert discussions within the forum. The main gaps center around the lack of data, particularly in low-resource settings, and the limited involvement of health professionals in policy development, despite their crucial leadership role throughout the decision-making process. Factors that support health professionals' participation in vaccination efforts include their commitment to patient safety, the availability of convenient and accessible vaccination services, and the vital importance of strong leadership backing. Tailored strategies addressing local challenges, as well as peer-to-peer influence, have also proven highly effective in boosting vaccination rates. Importantly, integrating health professionals' vaccinations into occupational safety plans is identified as a potential game changer. The report offers adaptable, real-world solutions to help policymakers and health professionals design effective, context-specific vaccination strategies for health professionals. These efforts will not only strengthen healthcare systems but also enhance global health resilience by protecting those on the front lines of care and prevention. |
