Childhood Immunization
Alberta Health Services understands that there is a lot of information available to Albertans about immunization. This can be stressful and confusing for parents and guardians.
AHS would like to hear from Alberta families about routine childhood immunization for children newborn to age 15 years. We want to talk to you about your thoughts, ideas, concerns, and opinions on immunizations, particularly for your children.
The survey below asked Albertans about their intention to have their children immunized against common childhood viruses and diseases. Parents were then asked what helped them to make a decision about childhood immunization, such as who or where they go to seek information. 8,938 Alberta parents and guardians responded to the survey between November 17 and December 31, 2022.
Our Public Health teams are now reviewing the information and perspectives provided, to guide how they provide Albertan parents with the information they need to make informed decisions about their children’s health.
