Long term care officials say theyâre concerned the state has no plan to assist facilities in ensuring residents and staff can get the COVID-19 vaccine once the federal partnership with CVS and Walgreens concludes.
The two pharmacies have contracts to hold three vaccination clinics at all nursing homes nationwide. After that, the facilities will have to fend for themselves to secure vaccinations for newly admitted residents and staff hires, said Zach Shamberg, president of the Pennsylvania Health Care Association, a trade group for the long term care industry.
âWe need guidance on where the vaccine is going to come from when the federal pharmacy partnership program ends,â Shamberg said. âRight now, itâs really an every provider for themselves mentality.â
