[Vaccination status and factors associated with pneumococcal vaccination in geriatric short-stay care]. / Statut vaccinal et facteurs associés à la vaccination antipneumococcique en court séjour gériatrique.

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.
