PLAN AHEAD: USE YOUR YEAR-END DOLLARS TO STOCK UP ON POPULAR, PRACTICAL
IMMUNIZATION RESOURCES FOR 2004
Does it look like your department or organization will be unable to use up
its annual budget by the end of the year? If so, the Immunization Action
Coalition (IAC) suggests you use your year-end dollars NOW to place an order
for bulk quantities of immunization resources you'll need in 2004.
In the past several years, IAC has shipped more than a million items to
providers around the world. Some of the most popular items include the
following: (1) the video "Immunization Techniques: Safe, Effective, Caring,"
(2) Adult Immunization Record Cards, (3) the Photo Notebook of
Vaccine-Preventable Diseases, and (4) the Slide Set of Vaccine-Preventable
Diseases.
Order these popular items in bulk, and you'll receive substantial discounts.
Also, please note there is no shipping charge for orders shipped by
fourth-class mail within the United States.
IMMUNIZATION TECHNIQUES VIDEO
You can ensure your staff has expertise in administering vaccines by
ordering and showing them the video "Immunization Techniques: Safe,
Effective, Caring." Developed by the California Department of Health
Services Immunization Branch and a team of national experts, the 35-minute
video presents abundant practical information on vaccinating people of all
ages. An excellent tool for training new staff and refreshing the skills of
experienced staff, the video comes with presenter notes and a skills
checklist. ($25 each; discounts for orders of 20 or more--please call (651)
647-9009.)

ADULT IMMUNIZATION RECORD CARDS. Invaluable for educating adults that
immunization is a lifelong process, the card lists seven vaccines for
adults. Use it during patient visits to discuss a patient's vaccination
status with them; then give it to them and encourage them to put it in their
wallet and use it to keep track of their next vaccination due date. Printed
on smudge-proof, rip-proof, waterproof paper, the card is intended for
lifelong use.

PHOTO NOTEBOOK/SLIDE SET OF VACCINE-PREVENTABLE DISEASES. These two powerful
visual aids are intended for clinic staff and community outreach workers who
make immunization presentations. Each includes color images of children and
adults with vaccine-preventable diseases. When you show your patients a
picture of an infant with severe varicella disease or other infections, they
will begin to understand the seriousness of the diseases that vaccines can
prevent. Whether viewed as a photo on a tabletop or as a slide on a screen,
each riveting image is easily worth more than a thousand words.
THE PHOTO NOTEBOOK OF VACCINE-PREVENTABLE DISEASES holds 20
plastic-protected, 8"x10" color photographs and comes in a three-ring
binder. Each picture is accompanied by simple text that explains the disease
portrayed. ($75 per set; discounts for orders of more than five sets--please
call (651) 647-9009.)

English-language script is included. A Spanish-language script, translated
by the Puerto Rico Immunization Program, is available upon request. ($25 per
set; discounts for orders of more than five sets--please call (651)
