The timely vaccination rates of the control group and the intervention group were 81.94% and 94.84% respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (χ²=12.571, P<0.001) . There was a significantly higher satisfaction rate in the intervention group (95.48%) than in the control group (87.10%) (χ²=6.856, P<0.001) .

The seamless management could effectively improve the quality of timely children vaccination and the parents' satisfaction rate.
