Seasonal Influenza and Tdap Vaccination Policies in Michigan Hospitals Progress Yet Substantial Capacity to Improve
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 January 2015
Abstract
We determined the prevalence of mandatory influenza and tetanus toxoid, reduced diphtheria toxoid, and acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccination policies for staff in Michigan hospitals and factors affecting policy implementation. Forty-one percent of responders reported a mandatory influenza vaccination policy, and 11% reported a mandatory Tdap vaccination policy. The support of hospital leadership is critical to policy implementation and overcoming barriers.
