Vaccine hesitancy remains a barrier to successful COVID-19 vaccination programs across all populations. Attempts to mitigate this barrier, including mandates, have not been successful, especially in communities of color where the vaccination rates remain low. Nursing leadership, diversity, equity, and inclusion officers, and C-suite executives of 1 health system collaborated to address vaccine hesitancy through various community conversations with health care workers, non-direct caregivers, nursing students, and all populations across 4 state counties. The efforts of the health system were to improve trust in the health care system by presenting transparent dialogue with opportunities for interactive questions through presentations by health care professionals.
疫苗犹豫仍然是所有人群中新冠疫苗接种计划成功实施的障碍。为缓解这一障碍所做的努力,包括强制接种,都没有成功,尤其是在疫苗接种率仍然很低的有色人种社区。一家医疗系统的护理领导层、多元化、公平和包容事务官员以及高管层管理人员合作,通过与医护人员、非直接护理人员、护理专业学生以及四个州县的所有人群进行各种社区对话,来解决疫苗犹豫问题。该医疗系统的努力旨在通过医疗专业人员的演讲,提供透明的对话并创造互动提问的机会,从而增进对医疗系统的信任。
