Research Study Opportunity
|
Researchers from Tufts Medical Center and the University of Michigan, in collaboration with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), are conducting a study to better understand hospital and health care systems' adult vaccine stocking practices - specifically, the factors considered when deciding whether to purchase, stock, and use an adult vaccine and how these practices may have changed over time. They are seeking to interview clinicians, pharmacists, administrators, and other professionals who are actively involved in vaccine stocking decisions. Participants will receive $100 as a thank you for their time. Study participation includes:
- A 60-minute interview (via Zoom or phone) to discuss your healthcare system’s vaccine purchasing/stocking practices, decision-making factors, and how these practices have evolved over time - A brief 10-minute follow-up survey If you’re interested in participating, please complete a screening survey using the button below, or email Scarlett He [email protected] to learn more.
