Vaccine Resources for Hospitals and Health Care Workers
These resources were developed between July 2020-March 2024
The people working in hospitals and health systems are trusted sources of information. Answering questions, sharing personal reasons for getting vaccinated, and respecting concerns of those not yet ready to get their vaccine are all powerful ways the health care field can help their communities stay healthy.
Vaccination Podcast Series
Listen to a series of podcasts on how hospital and health systems are building trust and working with community partners to foster vaccine confidence.
In “How St. Luke's Confronted the Virus Triple Threat,” two St. Luke’s Health System experts describe how they pivoted to provide respiratory care during last year's surge, and how the rapid creation of Respiratory Outpatient Clinics across the state made a tremendous difference for their patients. (August 2023)
“Fostering Trust in Pediatric Vaccinations with Gillette Children’s” highlights the children hospital’s work in the community to build relationships based on trust, honesty and commitment, which will help continue to improve vaccination rates and also address future health issues. (July 2023)
