title: Hepatitis B vaccine education programs: what really works?
abstract: 1. Health care workers need to know that hepatitis B vaccine provides a safe, effective protection for them against a significant occupational hazard. 2. Several theoretical models can be used to design hepatitis B education programs, including motivational theories, the Health Belief Model, and andragogy. Specific recommendations can be made about the plan, format, content, and evaluation of adult education programs about hepatitis B. Federal agencies, including the Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Labor, have established criteria for hepatitis B education programs.
