  • Shared Clinical Decision-Making and the Pharmacist’s Role
    Mar 2 2026

    Recent changes to childhood vaccine recommendations have introduced shared clinical decision‑making for several immunizations that were previously universally recommended, creating confusion among patients and providers alike. This course explains what shared clinical decision‑making means in the context of immunizations, examines how it affects pediatric vaccine discussions, and highlights opportunities for pharmacists to support informed, individualized conversations with patients and caregivers. You will gain clarity on how to apply shared clinical decision‑making principles—alongside proven health coaching strategies—to strengthen patient trust and foster more meaningful dialogue in pharmacy practice.
