Summary

This trial investigates how a communication strategy works in increasing human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines in community pharmacies among adolescents. Although pharmacies are vaccine providers, low vaccination rates are persistent as a result of low awareness of pharmacy services and poor engagement by pharmacy staff with adolescents about vaccines. The purpose of this study is to test a communication strategy that identifies vaccine-eligible children and teaches pharmacy staff how to effectively communicate with them about HPV vaccination in order to increase HPV vaccination rates.
