Independent pharmacies continue to be a top vaccination destination; however, recent surveys of our members show that offering and vaccinating adolescent and pregnant women is lagging behind other more routine adult populations. Join us for an engaging discussion as Stanford pharmacist David Ha and UC Irvine pharmacist Keri Hurley-Kim identify best practices for closing healthcare gaps in these special populations. Additionally, we will address vaccine hesitancy in these cohorts and review strategies to promote open dialogue, encourage patient engagement, and ultimately contribute to more successfully engaging this patient population.

  2. Select appropriate vaccinations for an adolescent or pregnant patient.
  3. Review common questions and concerns related to vaccinations for adolescent and pregnant patients.
