Becoming Cervical Cancer-Free
Cervical cancer is fully preventable through screening and vaccination
Each year 300 women in North Carolina die from this preventable disease
CCFNC’s priorities are vaccination and screening
![Page 6: INCREASING UPTAKE OF ADOLESCENT VACCINES IN NC SCHOOL HEALTH CENTERS Ashley Leighton, MPH Cervical Cancer-Free NC Cathy DeMason, RN, BSN Director, Rockingham.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/56649e375503460f94b26d53/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The Carolina Framework identifies 4 main causes of cervical cancer deaths:
•HPV infection•Lack of screening•Screening errors•Not receiving follow-up care
Carolina Framework

Becoming Cervical Cancer-Free
US uptake of HPV vaccine lags behind

Let’s make HPV vaccine part of routine adolescent care.
![Page 9: INCREASING UPTAKE OF ADOLESCENT VACCINES IN NC SCHOOL HEALTH CENTERS Ashley Leighton, MPH Cervical Cancer-Free NC Cathy DeMason, RN, BSN Director, Rockingham.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/56649e375503460f94b26d53/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Why schools?
Meet adolescents where they are
Adolescents least likely to see doctors
School health centers often already equipped to administer vaccines
Other countries with high rates of HPV uptake have utilized school settings
![Page 10: INCREASING UPTAKE OF ADOLESCENT VACCINES IN NC SCHOOL HEALTH CENTERS Ashley Leighton, MPH Cervical Cancer-Free NC Cathy DeMason, RN, BSN Director, Rockingham.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/56649e375503460f94b26d53/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
A step back
How can we help school health centers increase uptake of adolescent vaccines?
Let’s ask them!

School Health Advisory Board
Created Advisory Board with representatives from NCSCHA, DPH, DPI, Immunization Branch, school health center staff, and others with SHC expertise
![Page 12: INCREASING UPTAKE OF ADOLESCENT VACCINES IN NC SCHOOL HEALTH CENTERS Ashley Leighton, MPH Cervical Cancer-Free NC Cathy DeMason, RN, BSN Director, Rockingham.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/56649e375503460f94b26d53/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

SHC survey

Topics Barriers to HPV vaccine Potential interventions
Partnership with NCSCHA
33 SHCs offering HPV vaccine

SHC survey results
School health centers are already doing a lot!
37% Asking parents for consentwhile they are at school
42% Printing and mailing letterendorsing adolescent vaccines
82% Parent reminders that childrenare due for adolescent vaccines
![Page 15: INCREASING UPTAKE OF ADOLESCENT VACCINES IN NC SCHOOL HEALTH CENTERS Ashley Leighton, MPH Cervical Cancer-Free NC Cathy DeMason, RN, BSN Director, Rockingham.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/56649e375503460f94b26d53/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
SHC survey results
Several barriers still exist
Barrier(%)
Greatest Concern (%)

Upfront costs of ordering and stocking the privately purchased HPV vaccine 67 30
Inadequate reimbursement by insurance companies for providing privately purchased HPV vaccine
42 18
Out-of-pocket costs for children to receive VFC supplied HPV vaccine 33 21
Students not returning the consent form 76 21
Obtaining records of prior immunizations 61 6
School administrators’ concern that providing HPV vaccine will take students away from classes

SHC survey results
82% of school health centers interested in interventions but many had limited staff
Most do-able interventions: student incentives for getting adolescent vaccines printing and mailing letters endorsing adolescent vaccines
Interventions rated most likely to work: student incentives for getting adolescent vaccines parent reminders for adolescent vaccines asking parents for consent while they are at school

Designing an intervention
Create materials that make the consent process easier for parents
Make sure the materials Are easy to use (especially consent form) Promote adolescent vaccines Highlight convenience of SHCs Use voices and images of parents and
students

Challenges
Phone calls from parents Cost Vaccine history
Time
Ordering vaccines
