APhA Podcast - Adam Welch on Pharmacists' Roles in Providing Immunizations

Pharmacists are the medication experts on health care teams, and
often work with physicians and other health care providers to
ensure that a patient is receiving the most appropriate
medications, and using them safely and correctly. Pharmacists
have also take on an increasingly active role in preventing
thousands, if not millions, of illnesses by providing influenza
and other necessary vaccinations. In this episode, APhA President
Nancy Alvarez interviews Adam C. Welch, Associate Dean for
Assessment and Academic Affairs and Associate Professor of
Pharmacy Practice at Bill Gatton College of Pharmacy – East
Tennessee State University about the importance of immunizations
and the improved access that pharmacists offer.
