Vaccination Education Studies

Vaccination education studies include the following:

  1. Pharmacists’ Pneumonia Prevention Project (PPPP): assessing the costs and impact of a pharmacist-led pneumonia vaccine education program delivered in the senior center setting to community-dwelling older Philadelphians on knowledge, beliefs, and vaccine activation.
  2. Vaccine Education through Pharmacists and Senior Centers (VEPSC): assessing the costs and outcomes of a vaccine education program covering pneumonia, zoster, and influenza and delivered in the senior center setting by either a peer leader or a pharmacist to a group community-dwelling older adults in the Delaware Valley.
