Now Available: COVID-19 Vaccination and Therapeutics in PALTC Toolkit: Resources for Clinicians
About the Complimentary Toolkit:
During a meeting with members of the White House COVID-19 Response Team on October 17, 2022, leaders from healthcare associations across the country were asked to educate their members and stakeholders about the importance, effectiveness and accessibility of the COVID-19 bivalent booster and the therapeutics available to treat those diagnosed with COVID-19. AMDA-The Society for Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Medicine partnered with the American Society of Consultant Pharmacists, the Gerontological Advance Practice Nurses Association, the American Association of Nurse Practitioners, and the American Academy of Physician Associates to create this toolkit for clinicians working in post-acute and long-term care settings, treating the most vulnerable of our population.
