Elevating Nursing’s Impact on Boosting Vaccine Confidence
2:00 PM - 3:00 PM (ET)
Webinar Details
As the most trusted profession, nurses have the power to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 and other diseases on communities and to keep patients safe. With funding provided by the CDC, AACN launched a national initiative in 2022 focused on Building COVID-19 Vaccine Confidence Among Nurses and in Communities, designed to educate vulnerable populations about vaccines and dispel health misinformation. To achieve these objectives, AACN provided funding to 10 schools of nursing to help faculty and students have effective conversations about COVID-19 vaccinations and raise consumer confidence. This webinar will highlight the various educational and outreach strategies launched by participating schools to reach at-risk individuals and populations.
Objectives:
- Describe how to prepare faculty and students to have effective conversations on the need for vaccinations.
- Discuss how to increase the capacity of nursing school faculty and students to share credible vaccine information and respond to misinformation on social media.
- Explain strategies to engage with local communities through health departments, community-based organizations, and other groups to target key populations and address vaccine hesitancy.
Note: Recording of the webinar will be available soon after the webinar airs. Visit AACN's On-Demand Webinars to watch.
