Overview
School-based health centers (SBHCs) are an important setting to improve health through detecting, managing and preventing chronic illness. Too few people are educated about the human papillomavirus (HPV), which can prevent tens of thousands of deaths from cancer each year. PEER will evaluate a program to increase health and wellness and the use of SBHCs for primary and preventive care. If successful, PEER could significantly increase the use of SBHCs, and decrease HPV-associated cancers and, thus, reduce the burden of cancer in the United States.
Interventions
- Behavioral Mailers
Letter and fact sheet (infographic) mailed to caregivers of 9-14 year-olds and to teens 15-18, with optional phone call for "confidential patients" aged 15-18. - Behavioral Provider Materials
Clinic team/staff training based on qualitative interviews, recommended strategies and evidence-based interventions. Training materials include FAQs and Smart phrases. FAQs and informational sheets containing the same content as the mailers distributed in clinic to teen SBHC patients and their caregivers. - Behavioral Peer-to-Peer Educational Sessions
Educational sessions delivered in schools by OSBHA interns. Session content includes SBHC information and HPV awareness.
Primary outcome measures
- Rate of Vaccination for HPV (n of patients with HPV vaccination/n of patients eligible for vaccination) [Time frame: 6 and 12 months]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
- Rates of new patients to the clinic (n of new patients/n of established patients) [Time frame: 6 and 12 months]
- Rate of use of other SBHC services (primary care visits, wellness assessments) (n of patients with primary care visits/n of new and established patients) [Time frame: 6 and 12 months]
- Rate of vaccination for other adolescent vaccinations (COVID-19, flu, Meningitis, or uptick of other vax's (TDAP, MMR, etc.)) (n of patients with additional vaccination among new and eligible clinic patients) [Time frame: 6 and 12 months]
