In 2007, the state of New South Wales, Australia instituted a policy directive with compulsory provisions for health care workers to be vaccinated. This study sought to identify staff awareness and attitudes two years after it was implemented. It involved a self administered paper-based questionnaire of HCWs in two tertiary-referral teaching hospitals in Sydney, Australia in 2009. In the early phase, general awareness of the policy was incomplete and detailed knowledge was poor. However, support levels were high. Two years later, while the respondents indicated that they were aware that there was a policy in place, very few of the respondents were able to accurately describe its requirements. Regardless of the level of knowledge, support for the policy was still high (83% vs. 91%, respectively). Despite the high levels of general support for the vaccine policy directive in NSW, this study indicates that including influenza vaccination into the policy could be challenging.
2007 年，澳大利亚新南威尔士州制定了一项政策指令，规定医疗保健工作者必须接种疫苗。本研究旨在确定该政策实施两年后员工的意识和态度。它涉及 2009 年在澳大利亚悉尼的两家三级转诊教学医院对 HCWs 进行的自我管理的基于纸张的问卷调查。在早期阶段，对该政策的普遍认识不完整，详细知识也很差。但是，支持水平很高。两年后，尽管受访者表示他们知道有一项政策，但很少有人能够准确描述其要求。无论知识水平如何，对该政策的支持仍然很高（分别为 83%和 91%）。尽管新南威尔士州对疫苗政策指令的普遍支持程度很高，但本研究表明，将流感疫苗纳入该政策可能具有挑战性。
