About this study
Official title: Attitudes Towards Influenza Vaccinations Among the Healthcare Workers of the University Clinical Center of the Medical University of Warsaw
The study will be conducted in the UCKWUM teaching hospital in Warsaw between 2020 and 2022. The study group will be comprised of UCKWUM healthcare professionals All employees willing to participate in the study will receive an anonymous questionnaire on attitudes towards influenza vaccination . We will distribute information posters of the National Programme for Combating Influenza as part of the educational programme. In order to increase the effectiveness of the educational campaign, we will also send information e-mails, using the internal hospital e-mail system and conduct a series of online training courses to present the latest international reports on influenza vaccinations among health care professionals [CITATION Abr10 \l 1045].
Considering the fact that lack of time [CITATION Kus11 \l 1045] is the most common reason for not getting vaccinated against influenza among healthcare professionals, we will provide this group with an opportunity to receive free influenza vaccination during working hours at the UCKWUM hospital. Information about the possibility of vaccination will be provided in the form of e-mails (mailings) to hospital employees (internal hospital e-mail system), letters of information submitted to the offices of individual departments, and information posters.
The effectiveness of the educational programme will be assessed by re-administering the anonymous questionnaires after the influenza season, also by means of internal hospital e-mail system.
