The purpose of this study was to assess the views of stakeholders such as policy formulators and pharmacists on the introduction of immunisation services using community pharmacies as service points. This is to bridge the gap of the decrease in immunisation coverage currently reported by the Ghana Demography and Health Survey of 2014. The attrition of healthcare staff, which further contributes to this observation, can further be addressed by exploring community pharmacies as service points for immunisation. The current trend of practice globally in reducing vaccine preventable diseases involves the use of immunisation services at community pharmacies, which has not yet been explored in Ghana. The use of non-traditional settings such as community pharmacies for immunisation services has been enabled through policy, guidelines formulation and training for the provision of this service.
