BACKGROUND: Care managers (CM) for low-income disabled clients may address COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy with specific training.
OBJECTIVE: To assess the Partners in Vaccination (PIV) that trained CMs of a homecare program for disabled adults to promote COVID-19 vaccination.
METHODS: We randomized 78 CMs to PIV intervention (N = 38) or control (N = 40). PIV featured motivational interviewing (MI) skills and educational materials for unvaccinated clients. The primary outcome was first COVID-19 vaccination between December 1, 2021 and June 30, 2022 for clients of intervention CMs versus control CMs. Mixed method analysis included key informant interviews conducted from 5/24/22 to 7/25/22 with CMs, administrators, and clients about the PIV intervention.
RESULTS: Among 1939 clients of 78 study CMs, 528 (26.8 %) were unvaccinated by December 1, 2021 (274 clients of intervention CMs; 254 clients of control CMs). These clients' mean age was 62.3 years old (SD = 22.4) and 54 % were Black or Hispanic/Latino. First vaccination rate did not differ for intervention and control groups (6.2 % vs. 5.9 %, p = .89) by 6/30/2022. Barriers to addressing COVID-19 vaccination from interviews with 7 CMs and administrators were competing responsibilities and potentially antagonizing clients. Seven interviewed clients (five vaccinated and two unvaccinated) cited concerns about vaccination they heard from their family/friends and belief that risks of COVID-19 infection may be less than vaccination. Yet, some clients were receptive to physician recommendations.
CONCLUSION: Training CMs to promote COVID-19 vaccination for disabled clients did not increase first vaccination rates. CMs preferred their usual role of coordinating care and, even after the training, expressed discomfort with this potentially polarizing topic.
