Nurses play a crucial role in understanding each elderly person's health thoughts, past vaccination experiences and concerns (such as fear of side effects or feeling that they are in good health). Based on the cognitive abilities and emotional states of the elderly, providing clear and simple information to explain the benefits and safety of vaccines can help alleviate their concerns and enhance their willingness to get vaccinated. In addition, setting up vaccination sites within the institution, regularly reminding of vaccination times, and having familiar medical staff encourage vaccination is also an effective personalized approach. The head nurse should ensure that front-line nursing staff master the latest vaccine knowledge and communication skills so as to have effective conversations with the elderly and provide more considerate care services. Multidisciplinary collaboration is of great significance for enhancing the vaccination effectiveness of elderly care institutions. Collaboration among nurses, doctors, pharmacists and administrative staff helps to complete a comprehensive assessment, timely vaccination and follow-up. Jointly conducting health education, reminding of vaccination times and providing on-site vaccination services can significantly increase the vaccination rate among the elderly. Every member of the medical team should actively promote vaccination, share educational tasks, and set a good example (such as getting vaccinated themselves). This can create a good preventive atmosphere and trust relationship within the institution. Multidisciplinary collaboration can also better detect and handle adverse reactions, ensure the safety of the elderly, and continuously provide high-quality care. To enhance the nursing system, it is also necessary to establish clear operational procedures, including pre-vaccination assessment, record-keeping, and post-vaccination monitoring, while integrating vaccination work into daily care. Policy support at the institutional and government levels, such as planned publicity, stable financial input and unified operation guidelines, also helps to increase vaccine coverage and the quality of care. Providing relevant training to nurses and granting more leadership to head nurses can more effectively promote vaccination work, especially in elderly care where nurses play a core role. Continuous policy promotion and institutional support are of great significance for addressing the issue of low vaccination rates and promoting best practices in different institutions.
