1 R aising I mmunizations S afely & E ffectively Health Care Worker Campaign RISE-HCW David A. Nace, MD, MPH Director, Long Term Care and Flu Programs University of Pittsburgh Institute on Aging July 18, 2008 naceda@upmc.edu

2 Objectives Review the background work that led to RISE-HCW Describe the RISE-HCW program Present the RISE-HCW outcomes

3 Questions from the 1990’s 1) Can a facility reach a HCW influenza immunization rate of 60% or greater? 2) IF SO, can the facility maintain HCW influenza immunization rates of 60% or greater over time? 3) IF SO, can the program be deployed to other facilities?

4 BHWP Pilot Community Based Long-Term Care (LTC) Facility 1996 – Identified influenza immunization as QI Indicator 1996-98 – flu outbreaks 2002-03 – implemented declination form 2002-03 – Act 95 implemented 2004-05 – national shortage

5

6 Organizational Barriers  inadequate vaccine supplies  general vaccine inaccessibility  lack of positive incentives for immunization  requirement of written consent  limited record keeping  lack of any feedback or shared learning

7 Individual Barriers  limited leadership knowledge and support  poor staff knowledge about influenza  negative staff attitudes about the vaccine and injections

8 BHWP HCW Rates Nace DA, Hoffman EL, Resnick NM, Handler SM. Achieving and Sustaining High Rates of Influenza Immunization Among Long-Term Care Staff. J Am Med Dir Assoc February 2007; 8(2):128-133.

9 Questions from the 1990’s 1) Can a facility reach a HCW influenza immunization rate of 60% or greater? A = YES 2) IF SO, can the facility maintain HCW influenza immunization rates of 60% or greater over time? A = YES 3) IF SO, can the program be deployed to other facilities?

10 PLTCVP Promoting LTC Vaccinations Project AMDA Foundation / Pfizer 2002 QI Award –2002-2003 Season –6 LTC Facilities in Western PA Goals –Improve resident immunization rates Flu & pneumococcal –Improve HCW immunization rates Flu

11 PLTCVP Promoting LTC Vaccinations Project Design –3 usual care and 3 collaborative groups –All facilities received the ADMA Immunization Toolkit Access to project team for questions/information –Collaborative group (3) Single collaborative training session October 2002 Email / Phone contacts every 1-2 months Oct – February

14 Focus Group Evaluation Usual barriers identified Staff turnover problem –Nursing & CNA turnover of 30-55% average annually –Nick Castle 1996-2004 OSCAR data 43% ADM, 39% DON –Facility UC2 champion team – 200% during study

21 RISE-HCW Objectives Primary –60% HCW Influenza Immunization Rate Secondary –80% HCW Influenza Immunization Rate

22 Steering Committee Tasks Spring –Season activity –Vaccination rates –Vaccine supplies &orders Summer –Vaccination rates –Barrier assessment –Educational planning –Communications Fall –2 meetings –Early implementation barriers –Mid-season push

23 Facility Responsibilities Leadership Contact Team –Communication of information –Accountability –Leadership buy-in –Sense of urgency Designate Flu Champion –Coordinate immunizations –Coordinate education –Data collection –Dissemination of outcomes

24 Pharmacy Responsibilities Vaccine Supplies Defines Immunizations Process –Policy and Procedures –Forms MAR Preprinted labels Data collection Vaccination Clinic –Initial start date at each facility –Facility is responsible for administration Liaison between Steering Committee & Facilities

25 RISE-HCW Tools Used Declination Form –Encouraged Incentives –Pizza party for winning facility –News coverage of positive outcomes Education –Training and reference materials –Formal training sessions –AMDA video RISE Prevention & Management Network

27 RISE – Program Influenza Prevention & Management Network 18 campuses in Western PA –Distribution list-serve –Guidance Immunization issues Surveillance Outbreak detection Outbreak management Policy development –Regulatory assistance

28 Questions from the 1990’s 1) Can a facility reach a HCW influenza immunization rate of 60% or greater? A = YES 2) IF SO, can the facility maintain HCW influenza immunization rates of 60% or greater over time? A = YES 3) IF SO, can the program be deployed to other facilities? A = YES

29 Models of Mandatory Program Systems Mandatory Programs (Action Based) Mandatory Vaccination (Shot or Mask) eg Virginia Mason Mandatory Answer Written Declination (Shot or Sign) eg UPMC Cranberry Place Mandatory Answer Technology (Intranet) (Shot or Click) eg Cleveland Clinic UPMC

30 Models of Voluntary Program Systems Voluntary Programs (Passive Response) No Declination No NRT eg UPMC Canterbury Place Declination Limited NRT eg Asbury Heights NRT - Non-respondent tracking

32 Recommendations 1.Pharmacy Based Program Overcomes turnover issue 2.Mandatory – Action Based Program Explicit declination forms Complete non-respondent tracking 3.Leadership Accountability Require evidence based action if no improvement Don’t stipulate specific rate 4.Use Care Bundles
