Microplanning in high-quality vaccination: Potential and barriers experienced by multipliers
Keywords:
Vaccination, Vaccination Coverage, Immunization Programs, Health PlanningAbstract
Although the National Immunization Program is one of Brazil’s most important health interventions, vaccination coverage has declined, requiring resumption strategies. Microplanning is a low-cost technology adopted in Latin American countries. It applies to local realities, which enab les reorganizing immunization work processes with the participation of several stakeholders. Its implementation has been proposed in Brazil, carrying the need to modify the material and organizational means to ensure High-Quality Vaccination Activities (HQVA). This experience report aimed to discuss enabling factors and barriers to implementing microplanning for HQVA from the perspective of municipal and state-level professionals who participated in the workshops to implement this technology. The results show that the methodology and content of the workshops mobilized the stakeholders involved and supported immunization actions at the local level, where the results of vaccination strategies take shape. However, barriers to implementing microplanning include elements related to human resources, the need to improve processes to ensure the development of all stages of the microplanning, and problems related to logistics and supplies.
