Concerns Large birth cohort - 26 million births every year Declining coverage /low coverage 1998-99 Vs 2002-04/urban slum and difficult areas Lack of appropriate skilled human resources Unfilled posts leading to a high workload etc
Concerns ….contd Insufficient forward planning for vaccines and logistics Weak program management and supervision at all levels Poor IEC and demand generation Fund flow Unsafe injection practices and waste disposal: Significant percentage of injections used in the immunization sector are unsafe Low priority on medical waste disposal
Newer Initiatives under RCH II & NRHM Introduction of Auto Disable (AD) syringes Support for alternate vaccine delivery system to the session site All vaccines to be made available with appropriate cold chain at session site with alternate arrangements. Strengthening Monitoring & Supervision by State & District Immunization Officer SIO/DIOs and district officers provided funds for mobility Computer assistants for SIO/DIOs
Newer Initiatives … Contd • Organizing sessions in urban slums and under served areas by outsourcing the sessions where ever necessary (Hiring of vaccinator in service deficient areas or where ANM is not available) • Mobilization of children by ASHA and Anganwari Workers (AWW) to increase coverage and convergence of Nutrition with Immunization
Newer Initiatives … Contd Training of health staff (ANM & MO) Development and implementation of a Routine Immunization Monitoring System software Decentralized printing of recording and reporting & monitoring tools like Immunization card, monitoring charts, tickler box, Temp charts, etc
Newer Initiatives … Contd Review meeting 6 monthly at national & state level Support for State Specific needs Newer vaccines: Phased introduction of Hepatitis B & JE vaccine into the program Strengthening surveillance vaccine preventable diseases & monitoring of immunization coverage Vaccine management addressed BCG now in 10 dose vial.
