What this research studies
If my clinic joins, staff will learn and use adult-focused quality-improvement methods to identify patients who need vaccines and make it easier to deliver them. The team will review current clinic practices, develop an Adult Immunization QI Program, and help clinics put the program into action. They will monitor vaccination data and provide feedback to providers so clinics can improve how they offer vaccines. Successful practices will be shared with other clinics to broaden the impact.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: Adults who get care at participating clinics and are due for routine or recommended adult vaccines are the ideal candidates to benefit.
Not a fit: People who do not receive care from participating providers, children, or adults already up-to-date on vaccinations may not see direct benefits.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, more adults could get recommended vaccines on time, lowering the risk of vaccine-preventable illness.
How similar studies have performed: Provider-focused quality-improvement efforts have previously increased vaccination rates, and this project applies those strategies specifically to adult immunization across multiple settings.
