A systematic review of barriers and enablers associated with uptake of influenza vaccine among care home staff

CONCLUSION: Interventions aimed at increasing influenza vaccine uptake among CH staff should focus on addressing the barriers identified in this review. These interventions should include components such as enhancing knowledge by providing accurate information about vaccine benefits and safety, addressing negative beliefs by challenging misconceptions, managing concerns and fears through open communication, and improving accessibility to the vaccine through convenient on-site options. This review provides a foundation for the development of tailored Interventions to improve influenza vaccine uptake among CH staff.PMID:37673716 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.08.082
