The article “Business Models, Vaccination Services, and Public Health Relationships of Retail Clinics: A Qualitative Study” by Bayo C. Arthur, Allison Kennedy Fisher, Sarah J. Shoemaker, Alyssa Pozniak and Shannon Stokley seeks to “understand the profitability, vaccine offerings, and decision making related to the Retail Clinics’ business model” (Arthur et al., 2015, p.429). The affiliations for these authors are Bayo C. Arthur, Allison Kennedy Fisher and Shannon Stokley from Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Sarah J. Shoemaker, PhD from Abt Associates, Inc., and Alyssa Pozniak, PhD from Arbor Research Collaborative for Health. The research problem addressed in this article is whether or not retail clinics will help increase patient access to vaccination services which we currently fall below from our goal defined in Healthy People 2020.
When you start looking into the safety and effectiveness of vaccines you will see the same claims or statements meant to show why vaccines are absolutely necessary. However, when you take time to look at the claims with logic and common sense, you find they are largely flawed logically.
In the documentary “The Vaccine War”, there was a woman from Ashland, Oregon who’s main concern was that the vaccines being administered were causing more damage than good. I am not sure exactly as to how she can up with that theory but the mother stated the vaccines were not necessary. As a mother i can understand being frightened by the thought of medicine causing damage but it has been proven that vaccines have actually helped saved lives by preventing diseases that children used to most commonly get.There is a huge debate going on currently in regards to vaccines in children. In recent news during the second Republican Presidential Debate on September 16th, hosted by CNN at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum in California, there was controversy between Dr. Carson and Donald Trump. Donald Trump has linked childhood vaccines to autism on multiple occasions, despite their being no evidence to link the two together. Trump started off his point by saying that “autism has become an epidemic.” Although there has been an increase in the diagnosis of autism in children, there is still no evidence supporting his theory. One of Trump’s main concerns was the over-grouping of vaccines. Meaning he rather have vaccines given over a period of time, rather than all at once. Although it has been theorized that giving children multiple vaccines at once is safe, Dr. Carson went to agree with Trump, stating: “It is true that that we are probably giving way too many in too short of a period of time”. The controversy between vaccines and autism is causing fear in parents. It is taking away from their will to protect, and prevent harm from their children. We need accurate facts and
Increasing appropriate vaccination program has been initiated focused implementation of health care system and community services.

Recommendation includes the health care providers to offer educations and reminders for clients. Additional strategies of implementation include accessibility of vaccination such as reduced cost and providing expanded access in clinics. Home visit can also be offered for immobilized clients.

Your research article was intriguing. The subject of vaccinating children has been a growing topic of conversation The point that you made regarding as a patient advocate nurses have the role of educating our patients and families of the benefits of vaccinations. The patient may not understand the role of the vaccine and what can be prevented if vaccinated. The healthcare worker may need education regarding vaccinations as well. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Hepatitis B, and Pneumococcal vaccinations are recommended for patients with chronic kidney disease or on dialysis (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2012).
Amendment included the right to refuse compulsory vaccination (Mariner, Annas, & Glantz, 2005). Justice John Marshall Harlan questioned the court “Is this statute . . . inconsistent with the liberty which the Constitution of the United States secures to every person against deprivation by the State?” Justice Harlan went on to confirm that while the Constitution, specifically the 14th amendment, protected the individual liberty that this liberty is not an “absolute right” that created a situation where each person was “at all times and in all circumstance wholly free from restraint”. (Mariner, Annas, & Glantz, 2005). This created case law that stated that while the citizen was generally free from the involvement of the state within their

Prior to beginning the MBA program here at SUNY Empire, there are immunization requirements you must abide by. Thus, I contacted the office of my primary care physician and made an appointment to receive the vaccinations. In making the appointment I made it clear to the receptionist the purpose of the visit as I wanted to ensure that the physician was able to complete my request. I was praised by the receptionist for mentioning the vaccination as it was something that they had to order prior to my visit. As the visit approached I received an appointment confirmation from the receptionist during which I mentioned the purpose of the visit once again.

The importance of vaccinations What is a vaccination? Why are they so important ? A vaccination is a live virus administered into the body to build immunity against deadly diseases. When a child is little and is exposed to a disease their bodies are not strong enough to fight it off and can make them very sick. Before vaccination came into play children would get diseases such as pertussis(whooping cough),polio,diphtheria, and tetanus, all of these being extremely deadly.Why would someone want to give a young child these deadly viruses? Studies have shown that no medicine is perfect but most childhood vaccines produce immunity about 90 - 100% of the time.(vaccines) Before vaccinations were invented people were only living 50-60 years, they now are living 20-25 years longer. How does this protect those who physically can not have vaccinations? Vaccinations protect those who can not be vaccinated, whether is be from a disease they are already fighting, chemo / radiation, and being allergic. All of those being reasons to hope others get their vaccinations. Vaccinations not only protect children from harmful diseases, but also those who can not be vaccinated.
