Hermann said they are getting consent forms signed in anticipation of the vaccine being available to them. They will send a vaccinator to us, she explained I don t know the schedule yet, but it will be in the near future and it couldn t come soon enough. I am thrilled I will be able to hug her and not worry that I m causing her harm, said Rhonda Duffaut, whose mother lives at Belmont Village. Her mother Paula is also enthusiastic to receive the shot.
While those who spoke to us said they are looking forward to it, there is also concern about being among the first to take the new vaccine. In the coming days, staff and residents will receive more information about what is known about the vaccine.
