The goal of this community health nursing project was to reduce annual influenza rates in the adult and senior populations in the South Park community. This goal was accomplished through 3 primary objectives. First, education was provided to adults and seniors about the benefits of influenza vaccination. Next, two free flu vaccine clinics were offered on November 3, and November 16, 2018 by partnering with Bartell Drugs and Sea Mar Community Health Centers, respectively. Finally, the students provided a sustainable solution to SPSC for providing free annual flu vaccine clinics.
