JUST ANOTHER SHOT:REFRAMING THE HPV VACCINE From the MINNESOTA Department of Health HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=VFHJK5L0T-Y
Communication Strategies to Increase HPV Immunization Coverage Office Staff Parent & Child Sharon Humiston, MD, MPH, FAAP Professor of Pediatrics Children’s Mercy Kansas City, MO This work was funded by a grant from the CDC to Hager Sharp Inc. Provider EHR, IIS
Learning Objectives Identify and implement the “same way, same day” approach to HPV vaccination for all 11- & 12-year-olds (as well as older unvaccinated patients) in the pediatric health care setting. Recruit your whole office teamto take a role in HPV vaccination communication Model otherevidence-based strategies to increase HPV vaccination coverage in your office. Introduce >2 new practice tools into to help support HPV vaccination in the pediatric health care setting.
Objective #1 “SAME DAY, SAME WAY”
Doctor: “What do you want to do about shots today?” Parent: “Hmmm…What do you think we should do?” Doctor: “Tdap is required for school and some colleges require the meningitis vaccine. There’s also an optional vaccine, HPV, we could give at this age.” Parent: “That one isn’t required for school? Well, if it’s not really necessary, maybe we should hold off.” Doctor: “Well…if you don’t want it…Okay. Emma is such a good kid…I’m sure it can wait ‘til next time.”
Recommend HPV vaccine the same day & the same way as other adolescent immunizations Same day: Recommend HPV vaccine today, i.e., the same day you recommend Tdap & meningococcal vaccines. Unpublished CDC data, 2013.
Recommend HPV vaccine the same day & the same way as other adolescent immunizations More convenient for the parent More reliable Same day: Recommend HPV vaccine today, i.e., the same day you recommend Tdap & meningococcal vaccines. Unpublished CDC data, 2013.
Recommend HPV vaccine the same day & the same way as other adolescent immunizations Same day: Recommend HPV vaccine today, i.e., the same day you recommend Tdap & meningococcal vaccines. Same way: Bundle all the adolescent vaccines and recommend them all in the same way with the assumption that the parent will want protection for their child. Unpublished CDC data, 2013.
Today, Michelle should have 3 shotsthat will protect her from the cancers caused by HPV, and infections causing meningitis, whooping cough, tetanus, & diphtheria. What questions do you have for me about these vaccines?
There’s some preliminary evidence that a “participatory” style is associated with lower vaccination uptake. Avoid starting with a bland inquiry like, “Let’s discuss how you feel about the vaccinations for adolescents.” Notice that I’m recommending a presumptive style.
Use a practical communication strategy when a parent has a question Ask/ Respond Recommend Vaccinate ACKNOWLEDGE Plan for next step ADVISE
Use a practical communication strategy when a parent has a question Ask/ Respond Recommend Vaccinate • When a parent has a question, don’t panic. • My 2 knee jerk rxns – feel like we’re heading into time-sucking conflict & feel like my authority’s being challenged • Interpret a question as a request for reassurance from YOU, a clinician they trust ACKNOWLEDGE Plan for next step ADVISE

Use a practical communication strategy when a parent has a question Ask/ Respond Recommend Vaccinate ACKNOWLEDGE Plan for next step ADVISE
Use a practical communication strategy when a parent has a question Ask/ Respond Recommend Vaccinate DECLINE FOR NOW ACKNOWLEDGE Plan for next step ADVISE
If a parent declines… • Declination is not final. The conversation can be revisited.Declining = Delaying • End the conversation with at least 1 action you both agree on. • Because waiting to vaccinate is the risky choice, many pediatricians ask the parent to sign a Declination Form

Great job! He seized the moment He did not “profile” (he recommended the vaccine even though this girl does not look like she’s interested in having sex soon) He bundled the recommendation He asked for mom’s question He answered mom’s question accurately and calmly (if a bit long winded) When mom asked the 2nd question: “some people…”, he stayed positive He cared (“I’d feel better”)
“I don’t want to talk about sex.” Did you explain fecal-oral spread before you gave the polio vaccine? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fecal-oral_route

Every part of your practice influences parents’ perceptions
Objective #2 Recruit your whole office team to take a role in HPV vaccination communication
Be sure everyone in the office understands the mission Human stories often influence people more than statistics To understand the human stories behind HPV, listen to survivors Shot By Shot Unprotected People onwww.immunize.org
http://shotbyshot.org/cervical-cancer-and-hpv/heathers-story/http://shotbyshot.org/cervical-cancer-and-hpv/heathers-story/
The Opener • Announce the child needs 3 vaccines (4 if flu vaccine is available) • Encourage convenient same-day vaccination “Today, Pat should have 3 vaccines. They’re designed to protect him from the cancers caused by HPV and from meningitis, tetanus, diphtheria, & pertussis. What questions do you have for me?” • If a parents hesitates, the MA/nurse should say “Our team is so dedicated to cancer prevention -- I’m sure the doctor will want to respond to your concerns.”
In your office, who has this role in immunization communication? • Give the VIS • Explain the VISs • Answer questions if they arise • Vaccinate • Arrange for the next dose
Objective #3 other evidence-based strategies to increase HPV vaccination coverage
How to improve: 2 Approaches Increase the # of target patients who: • Come in • Leave the office vaccinated
1. # who come in Using reminder or recall messages • Timing • Reminder – to patients who will be due soon • Recall – to patients who are past due • Medium • Letter • Phone call – personal or auto-dialer • Text • Email
1. # who come in By making access easier Office hours – e.g., one evening/week, Saturday mornings Nurse only visits
Actual and Potentially Achievable Vaccination Coverage if Vaccines Were Given SimultaneouslyNIS-Teen, 2012
2. # who leave vaccinated By vaccinating at every visit type Well care Chronic care Acute care
2. # who leave vaccinated Standing Orders Empower non-physician personnel to vaccinate patients (after assessing for specific contra-indications) without direct physician involvement Preapproved orders to vaccinate on file Templates available for all routine vaccines atwww.immunize.org/standing-orders/ To save physicians’ time, staff have to be aware of the S.O. and trained to use it
2. # who leave vaccinated Provider Prompts • Prompt the person who is supposed to order the vaccine • How? • Nursing personnel • EHR • Both • Attention to prompts tends to wear off
