42nd Annual Dartmouth CO-OP PBRN Meeting
Missed our 42nd Annual Meeting held in January of 2022? Or perhaps you are feeling nostalgic? You can still review some key highlights from our past meeting!
The Dartmouth Way
The Dartmouth CO-OP PBRN lives by the ideal set by the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth in 1797; we strive to improve the lives of the people we serve. As such, we work hard to improve the health care of our local communities and the well-being of our community clinicians through community engagement and clinical research. Often we can be found traveling the Northeast from community practice to community practice helping local clinicians conduct research and teaching clinicians about community engagement.

Expanded Age Range for the HPV Vaccine and Shared-Decision Making
The HPV Vaccine Age Range was recently expanded to include adult patients from 24-45 years of age. However, this new change comes with several questions that our clinicians are now researching such as the effect of insurance coverage and the impact on shared decision-making policies of the expanded age group. Maureen Boardman was recently awarded funding to study the effects seen by the expansion of HPV vaccination criteria within health centers in New Hampshire and Vermont.

COVID-19 Vaccination & Booster Hesitancy
With the Global Pandemic of COVID-19 came an international effort among scientists to come up with an effective vaccine that could fight off the COVID-19 virus. The pressing urgency has caused a speed up in the FDA approval process of now three COVID-19 vaccines. Some people are questioning the effectiveness and potential long-term side effects of the COVID-19 vaccines and have declined to get them or at the very least are hesitant. Clinicians want to understand why patients are hesitating to get vaccinated for COVID-19.
