Adult Hepatitis B Virus Vaccination: An Implementation Guide for Local Public Health

Keywords / Description:

NACCHO's Collection of Adult Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) Vaccination Tools and Resources provides local health departments (LHDs) and their partners with practical and informational resources to vaccinate populations at disproportionate risk for HBV infection.

The tools included in this online resource are not defined as "best practices" but they have proven useful to the LHDs and related venues that developed them and can be modified to fit the needs of all users.

Users can also download one-page fact sheets featuring stories from the field and factors LHDs found helpful, challenges encountered, and lessons learned while conducting their Initiatives. These fact sheets provide context for applying the vaccination strategies and resources included in this online resource.
