ADVOCATES FOR THE ELDERLY CONCERNED ABOUT COVID-19 VACCINES FOR HOMEBOUND PATIENTS
Access to mass vaccination sites, pharmacy testing, and hospital drive-thrus are convenient for many, but what about the elderly patients who can’t leave their homes?
We know that long-term facilities were at the top of the list for access, but there is still a senior population that has been seemingly left out.
The problem isn’t that home health professionals couldn’t administer the COVID-19 vaccine, the challenge lies in accessing and transporting the vaccine with its temperature and time-sensitivity requirements.
CHUG UPDATES: There is no denying that there has been an ever-evolving evolution of emergency preparedness in healthcare. As we progress into the COVID-19 pandemic, see how CHUG can help your organization to be prepared.
