ABSTRACT
This article provides best and promising practices for recommending HPV vaccination at age 9 as a way to ensure high uptake. An effective method for recommending HPV vaccination is the Announcement Approach, which consists of 3 evidence-based steps. The first step, Announce, involves noting that the child is 9 years old, saying they are due for a vaccine that prevents 6 HPV cancers, and saying you'll vaccinate today. This adapted version of the Announce step simplifies the bundled approach used at ages 11-12 that emphasizes the prevention of meningitis and whooping cough in addition to HPV cancers. For hesitant parents, the second step, Connect and Counsel, involves finding common ground with the parent and communicating the value of starting HPV vaccination at the first opportunity. Finally, for parents who decline, the third step is to Try Again at a later visit. Using the Announcement Approach at age 9 stands to increase HPV vaccine uptake, save time, and lead to high family and provider satisfaction.
