In underserved communities, flu vaccination uptake remains a critical challenge. This session will explore how strategic collaboration can increase vaccination rates by providing up-to-date educational resources for patients and healthcare teams, improving access to vaccines, and using tools to measure progress.
We will highlight the SHC DRIVE Flu program—a quality improvement initiative designed to support primary care teams in delivering high-quality, equitable care. Through a rapid cycle improvement model, the program emphasizes a champion-led, patient-centered, team-based approach to address knowledge gaps and enhance vaccine access. Over the past two years, this approach has successfully increased flu vaccination rates in Free and Charitable Clinics. This session will provide practical insights and actionable strategies for enhancing vaccination efforts in your community.
