"The best presentation this semester!"

It was perfect! I wish all the "hesitant to vaccinate" parents could hear it. Your speaker did an awesome job!

It was wonderful, the immunizations were thoroughly described in a simple and effective presentation.

Reviewing the topics as a group of nurses is motivating, and stimulates conversation and sharing of ideas.

I have increased my knowledge in this area & therefore will be able to teach parents with confidence.

Wonderful presentation. Nurse speaker was very well prepared, answered my questions and I will use her information for my family - You were great!

As a nursing student I am more encouraged to educate my friends and future clients about the importance of vaccines.

I really enjoyed your workshop. Found it to be a very useful educational experience for me. Thanks.

Thank-you ever so much for coming to talk with the health sciences students… lots of “buzz” during the break. We would be delighted to have you back next year as well (please!).

--- Wally, Associate Professor

Thank you for taking the time out of your busy day to inform us about immunization. As nurses, we are continually learning and appreciate all information from your initiative.

--- Jane, Nursing Manager

……just a great presentation this afternoon to our team. I agree that because there is less of the “bad” diseases around, people forget how bad it was and how immunization is making such an impact in our world. Thanks so much for wanting to speak to us. I’ll be in touch for Part II. Thanks.

--- Marion, Director of Operations

…….The students and I appreciated your visit with us. It was very informative and definitely kept the students’ interest! It was great meeting you!

--- Debbie, 2nd-Year teacher

I am new to Public Health Nursing in Charlottetown PEI, after 18 yrs of acute care nursing. I looked at your site after seeing an article in the Canadian Nurse. What a wonderful resource, I will use it often and will definitely refer my clients to it. Thank you for the current and concise information.

--- Ann Marie, RNBN PHN

Rather than teach with the intention of changing someone's mind, I will teach with the goal to educate.

The presentation reinforced the importance of the nurse’s role in education.

An excellent overview of all that is involved in immunization - very thorough.

The information was great! Lots of interesting topics. Very educational!

Incredibly useful information that all nurses should receive.

A lot of information for us to know about. It was good to learn new information.

A very in-depth look at the most important vaccinations and why they are important.

I feel more competent – knowledgeable.

I will definitely be more active in promoting vaccinations.

I now have ‘ammunition’ for parents that don’t believe in immunization.

I will be more informed about vaccination awareness and able to correctly inform patients, family, and friends about the positives re: vaccines and reducing misconceptions.

I will use this information to promote health, especially emphasizing vaccination in babies and infants.
