Influenza vaccination coverage in old people's home in Carmarthenshire, UK, during the winter of 1998/99.

Abstract:

:A mailed questionnaire survey was undertaken in old people's (nursing and residential) homes in Carmarthenshire, UK to determine the influenza vaccine uptake during the 1998/99 season. Out of the total 60 questionnaires circulated, response was received from 47 homes giving an overall response rate of 78%. Amongst the 1399 residents, 1132 (81%) received influenza vaccine in the winter of 1998/99. Uptake was higher in nursing homes (89%) than in residential homes (79%) or dual registered homes (81%). The most common reason for not receiving influenza vaccination was refusal by the residents themselves, although the vaccine was offered to 99% of residents. This study suggests that strategies to improve communication and provision of educational materials outlining the benefits of influenza vaccine to elderly residents and health professionals may help increase the likelihood of vaccine uptake.
