In order to establish an educational and supporting method on risk management, surveys and interventions were conducted on 276 nursing students from April to November 2004. The first questionnaire evaluated whether nursing students could recall being infected with or receiving a vaccination of measles, rubella, mumps and varicella. A second questionnaire evaluated whether or not the interventions were an effective tool to promote vaccination. When analyzing the past history of infection, our results indicated that the memory rate was high in varicella (90.8%) and mumps (93.3%), whereas the prevalence rate of varicella (88.4%) was higher than mumps (50.4%). When analyzing the students who have not been infected, the vaccination rate in mumps and varicella was less than the rate in measles and rubella. Only six students were vaccinated with one of the four pediatric infections upon receiving interventions. The questionnaire revealed that the most prevalent reason for not taking the vaccine was due to the lack of information on which vaccine should first be taken. Our results suggested that a specific plan of infection control is an essential tool needed to modify the students' behavior.
