Outcome In an effort to increase awareness among new, incoming students of the public health importance of compliance with UC's TB screening and immunization policy and to maximize overall compliance rates, SHC will: 1) continue to improve/simplify/enhance instructions and information provided to new students including production of instructional videos; revisions to the WH&CS student health portal and updates to the SHC website; 2) enhance collaboration with campus partners regarding communications regarding these admission health requirements; and 3) Organize and plan seven (7) "Health Clearance & Immunization Fairs" in an effort to accommodate students and increase compliance. To measure the success of this immunization awareness initiative, the SHC will generate ongoing compliance reports through PnC to show compliance rates. These PnC reports will also allow SHC staff to see what areas of the compliance process students are failing to complete before the compliance deadlines. The goal for 2022-23 is to have 90% of incoming students compliant by the deadline October 2022 and 100% compliance by the start of the Winter quarter.• Information regarding the UC mandated Immunization and TB test requirements is presented to new, incoming students in the following ways : o New students must acknowledge this requirement at the time they submit their Statement of Intent to Register. o This requirement is often referenced in communications from academic advisors. o New students receive multiple emails from UC Irvine Student Health Center. o Information is presented at the Student Parent Orientation Program (SPOP). o Information regarding this requirement appears on the Student Health Center website.
