The purpose of this study is to identify barriers to utilization of immunization registries within a pharmacy context and tailor the information into a novel immunization registry training program.
The purpose of this study is to identify barriers to utilization of immunization registries within a pharmacy context and tailor the information learned about barriers into a novel immunization registry training program with strategies specific to individual subsets of pharmacies, independent pharmacies in rural areas. Doing so will help achieve the long-term goal which is to increase the use of immunization registries in community pharmacies in Alabama.
The specific aims are to
The impact of the training program on registry participation rates will be assessed using a randomized controlled trial design comparing Alabama community pharmacies' registry data as well as intention to participate.

| Change in knowledge | The extent to which participant is familiar with and understands immunization registries will be assessed via online questionnaire at baseline, one month, and three months. Eight true or false and multiple answer items will be used to measure knowledge. Each item will be scored, 0 for an incorrect answer and 1 for a correct answer. Knowledge is the sum of the 8 items and could range from 0-8 with higher values representing greater knowledge. | 1 month and 3 months |
| Change in attitudes | Participant's perceptions toward attributes of the immunization registry assessed via online questionnaire at baseline, one month, and three months. A scale including 25 Likert-type items will be used to measure attitudes. Each Likert-type item will be scored, ranging from 0 for strongly disagree to 6 for strongly agree. Mean scores will be calculated for the 25 items in the scale so that attitudes score range from 0 to 6 with higher values indicating greater positive attitudes. | 1 month and 3 months |
| Change in intention to enroll in immunization registry | Participant's likelihood to enroll their pharmacy in the immunization registry assessed via online questionnaire at baseline and one month. A scale including 3 Likert-type items will be used to measure intention. Each Likert-type item will be scored, ranging from 0 for strongly disagree to 6 for strongly agree. Mean scores will be calculated for the three items in the scale so that intention score ranges from 0 to 6 with higher values indicating greater intention. | 1 month and 3 months |
| Change in Implementation Factors | Implementation factors informed by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) including innovation characteristics, characteristics of individuals, inner setting, outer setting, and process will be assessed via online questionnaire at baseline and three months. A scale including 42 Likert-type items will be used to measure Implementation Factors. Each Likert-type item will be scored, ranging from 0 for strongly disagree to 6 for strongly agree. Mean scores will be calculated so that the implementation factors score ranges from 0 to 6 with higher values indicating greater positive influence of CFIR implementation factors. | 3 months |
