 This study aimed to determine the needs of recent newcomers to Canada in managing their vaccination records by surveying government-assisted refugees attending a health clinic in Ottawa. The survey captured data on household demographics, spoken languages, country of origin, technology use and methods used to track vaccination history. Results showed that Arabic was the predominant language spoken, although 92% of participants owned a smartphone, most did not actively use digital health applications. 18 participants were vaccinated before arriving in Canada, and 38 indicated they would use a vaccine-tracking app if translated into their primary language of communication. The study concludes that mobile technology may be a useful tool to help newcomer families stay on track with provincial and territorial immunisation schedules.
