Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
Individuals will be recruited using a community-based participatory research model to identify 525 patients to enter into an 24-30 month clinical pharmacist run, vaccine and health and wellness program delivered via Xavier's clinical pharmacy faculty trained in telehealth medicine using an individually randomized group treatment trial approach based upon industry of recruitment. Our recruitment will target enrollment of: 65% African-Americans, 10% Hispanic and 20% rural, with overlapping categories as necessary. Participants will be recruited from target high risk industries for COVID-19 infection: hospitality and food industry, plant workers, nurse's aides, teacher's aides and the beauty industries. Participants will complete a minimum of three individual visits and group informational visits. Both arms of the study will receive health and wellness visits. Only the vaccine intervention arm will receive the vaccine and counseling. Changes in vaccine hesitancy and monitoring for vaccine completion will occur by the clinical pharmacist via patient interviews and Links© access. The primary outcome will be completed COVID-19 vaccination series (primary series + applicable boosters). The secondary outcome will be completed influenza vaccine.
Impact: The implications of this proposed project are to understand health related beliefs and behaviors related to vaccination and vaccine hesitancy in the context of a general health and wellness model. This intervention approach aims to decrease vaccine disparities among vulnerable individuals. It will provide data to develop strategies to improve vaccination, especially COVID-19 vaccination, in vulnerable communities using pharmacy students and pharmacists. This grant will facilitate training early stage investigators and diversify the health research workforce as the researchers are underrepresented minorities and women.
