    (Deanship of Research/ Al-Quds University, 2024-04-01) MennatAllah Khaleel; Mohammad Alfakeh; Dala Daraghmeh; Rania Ghanem
    Immunization is a highly effective and affordable preventive measure against various diseases. Despite this, many immunization programs are not being utilized as much as expected. Interestingly, involving pharmacists in vaccine administration has proven beneficial to both patients and healthcare systems in countries like Portugal, England, and the USA. In Palestine, pharmacists are currently not involved in vaccine services but play an active role in public education. To extend their responsibilities and ensure a more comprehensive scope of practice, it is important to determine their interest in becoming immunization providers, and their knowledge and opinion on the subject.
