Learning from Examples
People are vaccine hesitant for different reasons. This section showcases various patient perspectives about why they are hesitant and demonstrates how a pharmacist can intervene to have a positive impact.
Let’s see an example where a pharmacist has a positive interaction with a patient who is hesitant to get the vaccine. As the pharmacist moves through the ASORT process, notice how he:
- Asks the patient if she has been vaccinated
- Solicits her main concern about the vaccine
- Offers to address the patient’s primary concern
- Recommends the vaccine
- And plans to Try again later in case the patient changes her mind
