Popis: | This article reports the results of a survey undertaken to determine the current level of collaboration between Women, Infants and Children (WIC) programs and immunization services. While the results of this study are encouraging, WIC needs to continue to place emphasis on using written or computerized immunization records for client screening, utilize available computer hardware and software to assist assessments, and expand the use of food voucher incentives as a strategy to improve coverage. |
