Welcome Power of Providers (POP) Members!
Thank you for joining us, and thousands of other providers across the state of Washington, in encouraging COVID-19 vaccination and working to reduce COVID-19 transmission, severe illness and death.
Save this page and check back regularly for new resources and updated materials, the latest news on COVID-19 vaccines, and upcoming industry meetings and events. Learn more about POP.
We encourage POP members to talk to each of their patients using the SAVE intervention:
SEEK: Seek your patients' COVID-19 vaccination status.
ASK/EDUCATE: If your patient isn't vaccinated, ask them about the vaccine and offer education if they're unsure.
VACCINATE: If your patient agrees to vaccination, provide them with a COVID-19 vaccine or a referral to a location that provides COVID-19 vaccination.
EMPOWER: Empower your patients to share their vaccination status with the community.
