Effectiveness of CARD for Improving School-Based Immunizations
Vaccination is estimated to have saved more lives in Canada than any other single intervention and is considered one of the most important advances in the prevention of disease. The process of vaccination, however, is stressful for individuals. School-based vaccinations in particular, are associated with high levels of fear and anxiety among students. This randomized cluster trial will implement a multi-faceted knowledge translation intervention called The CARD (C-Comfort A-Ask R-Relax D-Distract) System in school-based vaccinations and evaluate its effects on the experience of vaccination for students and implementation outcomes.
