Barriers and facilitators to HPV vaccination in rural South Carolina pharmacies: a qualitative investigation
Multiple barriers and facilitators were identified as impacting HPV vaccination in rural South Carolina community pharmacies. Addressing these barriers may improve pharmacy-based HPV vaccination services, thereby improving access in rural communities. Findings from this study will be used to develop implementation strategies to increase administration of the HPV vaccine in pharmacy settings.
