Vaccinations in Mahoning Valley nursing homes are expected to begin next week, and preparations are underway for Trumbull County’s emergency medical responders to receive vaccines.
“At this time, it appears that all of the Trumbull County nursing homes have registered with the state to receive vaccines from the contracted pharmacy chains Walgreens and CVS,” stated Natalie Markusic with the Trumbull County Combined Health District in an email. “The pharmacy chain assigned to each nursing home will coordinate directly with the nursing home itself to vaccinate residents and staff. Vaccinations are to start next week.”
Danielle Procopio, director of marketing, sales and communication for Shepherd of the Valley’s corporate office, said their facilities in Howland and Liberty are expected to start receiving vaccines on Monday from CVS. Procopio said the system is expecting to hear from CVS soon to see which day Mahoning County locations will start.
