The goal of this trial is to reduce the general error related to vaccines and immunizations (composited on secondary endpoint), after 11 moths of folow-up after cluster randomization and stepped wedge on primary care on brazilian public health. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. To evaluate the effectiveness of a multifaceted intervention in vaccination rooms in reducing vaccination errors. 2. To describe the rate of adverse events following immunization (AEFI) and the associated factors.

Researchers will compare two times in a Stepped Wedge design: 1. Usual Care :All sites will follow the standard practices for vaccine management and immunization in health units with vaccination rooms during 1 month. All sites will be randomized into 11 steps (corresponding to the number of stages required to complete the 12-month study). At each step, 8 clusters (each containing one immunization service within a primary care facility) will receive the intervention." 2. Multifaceted Strategy :\*This time will implement a multifaceted quality improvement and process strategy composed of: * Video-based training on vaccine management. * Development of an optimized Cold Chain Manual, streamlining guidelines for vaccine handling. * Technical documents providing comprehensive guidance on the appropriate management of vaccines and their respective immunization schedules. * Technical documentsaddressing the management of errors identified post-vaccination and offering recommendations for public guidance.
