Course Description
Healthcare providers (HCPs) encounter significant challenges in vaccine acceptance. A critical need exists among primary care providers (PCPs) to remain abreast of the continuously evolving vaccination landscape. As such, PCPs need to be able to evaluate the burden of vaccine-preventable diseases, provide well-founded recommendations for vaccine measures, and apply appropriate strategies to address vaccine hesitations.
Explore the 3-part on-demand Community Collective Chapter Series, titled Moving the Needle in Vaccinations of Older Adults: A Provider Townhall to Enhance Vaccine Uptake. This collaborative effort, in conjunction with local AAFP Chapter meetings, provides expert guidance and clinical best practices to understand the burden of vaccine-preventable disease, the impact of prevention and updates in vaccine development, and effective strategies for improving vaccine uptake.
