Abstract

Nearly two-thirds of geriatric short-stay patients were eligible for pneumococcal vaccination. Among patients eligible for vaccination, less than 5 % had received at least one injection of pneumococcal vaccine on admission. We found no modifiable factors associated with vaccination status, but several avenues for improving vaccination coverage.

Keywords: court séjour gériatrique; couverture vaccinale; geriatric short stay; pneumococcal vaccination; pneumococcus; pneumocoque; statut vaccinal; vaccination antipneumococcique; vaccination coverage; vaccination status.
