East Mediterr Health J. 2017 Jul 16;23(5):383-387 Authors: Bouanene I, Trimech F, Ben Salah A, Ben Salem Kamel K, El Mhamdi S Abstract We conducted a clinical audit by observing 55 vaccinators in schools in the governorate of Monastir in 2014. We used a set of criteria by referring to the national immunization programme. The cold chain was respected in most cases. Accumulators, the collector of syringes and needles, cotton balls soaked in alcohol and emergency box were available in 85.5%, 76.4%, 98.2% and 41.8% of cases respectively. Hand washing before immunization session was performed in 29.1% of cases. Waste disposal according to the hygiene rules was done by 40 agents. Health education of students regarding the interest of vaccination was done in 67.3% of cases. Therefore, improvements in hand hygiene practice and education are recommended.
