Measuring effectiveness of service aides in infant immunization surveillance program in North Central Texas

B J Moore et al. Am J Public Health. 1981 Jun.

Abstract

The Immunization Division of Texas Public Health Region 5 sought to measure the per cent of referrals taking immunization action as a result of service aide contact. From data collected on newborn-nonresponders during a 12-month period, results show that aides may be credited with influencing 44 percent of the referrals reporting subsequent immunization.
