title: [Development of a health education program prior to a hepatitis B vaccination campaign among hospital personnel].
abstract: The hepatitis B (HB) is the most frequent occupational infection in health care workers, and HB vaccination the best way to prevent it. Although sanitary staff participation in vaccination programs in rather small, it is enlarged after the previous information. In order to increase staff participation in a second vaccination program, we have developed an information campaign in our hospital. In an inquiry to a sample of not vaccination personnel (87/304; 28.6 per 100), we got the following answers: 92.9 per 100 declared HB as dangerous, 95.4 per 100 believed there was a greater risk for the hospital staff, 87.4 per 100 asked for more information (spoken preferably), and 85.1 per 100 accepted vaccination. However, at the beginning of the campaign, the attachment was reduced to 57.9 per 100. In spite of this decrease, we believe that the acceptance rate of unwilling personnel is the result of the information provided.
