Cayuga County nursing homes to begin COVID-19 vaccinations this week

Residents and staff at four nursing homes will be the first to receive the COVID-19 vaccine in Cayuga County. 
More than 600 nursing homes across New York are participating in a federal program involving retail pharmacies, such as CVS and Walgreens. Through the partnership, pharmacists will administer the vaccine to residents and staff at nursing homes. 
The Commons on St. Anthony, a nursing home in Auburn, will begin vaccinating residents and staff on Tuesday. A spokesperson for Loretto, which owns the facility, told The Citizen that it is partnering with PharmScripts, a pharmacy company that provides services to long-term care facilities, to oversee the vaccine process. Employees and residents who completed their vaccine consent forms will receive the first doses this week.
