Great Plains Quality Innovation Network launched the COVID-19 Staff Vaccination Ambassador Program in March to support COVID-19 vaccination efforts and recognize community-based organizations, healthcare providers and nursing homes with high staff vaccination rates throughout North and South Dakota.
As of today, 83 organizations have been recognized as a COVID-19 Staff Vaccination Ambassador.
Organizations with a 75% or greater staff vaccination rate can request this distinction. Each organization is then sent a certificate, recognition as a Vaccination Ambassador on the GPQIN website and a customizable press release template to distribute at their discretion. There is also great value in responses sharing what has worked well and barriers encountered; best practices and resources will assist those seeking assistance in increasing their staff vaccination rates. It is not too late to be recognized for your efforts.
