Immunizations
Microplan, track every dose, and report coverage and adverse events following immunization in real time.
◆ Microplanning
Coverage Tracking
Mass Campaigns
The Challenge
Immunization programs must track timely doses for huge populations, where missing records leave people unprotected.
Vaccine stockouts and supply
Health workers need to track doses and cold-chain stock.
Reaching mobile populations
Families move, making consistent follow-up hard to maintain.
Running campaign surges
Mass drives create sudden spikes in field activity.
HIGHLIGHT 1 · ADMINISTER
Record every dose and schedule the next appointment
- Open a client record with age and full dose history
- Select the doses due and capture the vaccine batch number
- Book the next appointment against the national schedule before you finish
HIGHLIGHT 2 · ADVERSE EVENTS
Capture side effects reported after a dose
- Work a structured list of side effects instead of free text
- Record onset date, intensity, and whether hospitalization followed
- Send the report on for investigation, by app or by message
HIGHLIGHT 3 · STOCK
Keep every antigen above its reorder point
- Set minimum and maximum days of stock for each vaccine
- Trigger reordering before a facility runs dry
- Submit counts from the facility, offline if the connection is down
Example Dashboard Integration
HIGHLIGHT 4 · REPORT
Watch coverage and drop-off across every antigen
- Track doses administered and the share of the eligible population fully vaccinated
- Compare coverage antigen by antigen in one view
- Spot drop-off between doses before it turns into a gap

COMMON QUESTIONS
Immunization FAQs
Campaigns & Delivery
Can CommCare support both routine immunization and mass campaigns?
Yes. Programs microplan sessions against target children by zone, run routine dose tracking, and scale up for mass campaigns. Guinea used CommCare to digitize a national malaria campaign that reached 18 million people.
How does CommCare track doses and schedules?
Workers tick off antigens given against each child record, auto-schedule the next dose from the national EPI schedule, and set caregiver reminders that work fully offline.
Can CommCare help manage vaccine stock?
Yes. Teams forecast vaccine demand and days of cover by antigen and catch stockout risk before it reaches the cold chain.
Data & Operations
Does CommCare work offline?
Yes, CommCare is offline-first. Vaccinators record doses and reminders without connectivity, and records sync automatically once a connection returns.
Can CommCare integrate with DHIS2 and national EPI reporting?
Yes. Coverage data, including fully-immunized and Penta-3 rates and dropout, streams straight to national EPI systems and DHIS2, and you can export to Excel, Power BI, and Tableau.
Can CommCare pay campaign workers?
Yes. A CommCare-based workforce management system for the Gates Foundation and WHO enrolls polio campaign workers across 16 African countries, links them to mobile-money wallets, and pays them on completion of each round. Contact our team to scope a campaign like this.
