In honor of National Adult Immunization Week, September 24-28, we call your attention to an excellent source for patient education materials in many different languages, some of which we have featured here before. The IAC or Immunization Action Coalition is another one of our CDC partners in the Viral Hepatitis Education and Training program. They offer many different kinds of patient education materials about Hepatitis A and B vaccines. They’re easy to access and easy to download as pdf files, so they can be printed and distributed at your clinic, and they are available in Spanish. We have chosen a few of the resources most relevant to adult immunization and Hepatitis, but be sure to check all of their excellent resources.
