What is the vaccination rate in your community? The American
Nurses Association (ANA) is working to eliminate vaccine-
preventable diseases through a national immunization partnership
with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Nurses play a key role in increasing vaccination rates, so ANA
has created ANAImmunity , a resource website of nursing-specific
information, education and tools. ANA and Every Child by Two
(ECBT) have partnered to produce an innovative online continuing
education module for nurses on vaccine safety and patient
communication. Combining a nurse-panel presentation with
patient-nurse video vignettes, this Free CE Webcast course
offers practical knowledge and skills to increase immunization
competency. Learn more when you sign up for ANA ImmuNews. The
electronic newsletter is delivered twice a month, and features
articles that are selected with nurses in mind, focusing on
immunization topics that are most pertinent to their role in the
immunization field.
