MUSKEGON, Mich. â As vaccine expansion continues to include younger people, some senior citizens continue to wait for the vaccine.
For those who have at-home care and are not residents in nursing homes, scheduling vaccines has been a task that have fallen on the nurses shoulders.
LifeCircles cares for roughly 300 seniors in Muskegon, Ottawa and Allegan counties with at-home care. Before the pandemic, the seniors would get bused into one of the two facilities in Muskegon or Holland to receive daily care in some cases. They would then return home to independently care for themselves or with the help of a caregiver.
