UCGC gave flu shots to 99.6% of UGCG patients!

The UCSF Center for Geriatric Care (UCGC) gave flu shots to 99.6% of UCGC patients during this year's flu season. This year was better than in any previous year on record. This success was only possible due to the combined efforts of everyone in our UCGC practice.  Brenda, Julia and Liz organized our staff to give flu shots during provider appointments, during nurse visits, and during our Saturday flu shot day. Front desk staff scheduled patients and mailed out reminder cards. Nursing staff (including our permanent and temporary staff) administered lots of injections (both in and out of costume) and contacted patients to get updates about immunizations they got other places or about refusal to get vaccines. Our social worker helped patients get transportation to their appointments. Providers remembered to recommend flu shots during office visits and home visits. Ziyi and Christina provided reports of patients who were overdue so we could do outreach. Of course we would never brag, but you can notice in the graph below how we did among the UCSF primary care practices.  I am very proud of everything that you all contributed to make this possible and I am so glad that I get to work with each one of you. You make our work excellent and fun. ---Daniel Pound, MD
