COVID-19 Vaccine
COVID-19 vaccination is now available throughout the State. You can also check with pharmacies in your area, as many are administrating the vaccine. Some sites may require an appointment, others are taking walk-ins. MCQC highly recommends that everyone gets vaccinated, as well as to continue to wear masks and practice social distancing.
The National Consumer Voice has issued some guidelines for families planning to visit family members during the holidays.
COVID-19 Testing
You can also check with your county health office for testing sites. Some local pharmacies and hospitals are also doing COVID-19 testing. Appointments may be required.
“The pandemic really did rip a Band-Aid off of the care and what was going on within our nursing homes. They are understaffed; the staff the does not make a lot of money.” That’s the reality of the situation from ANN BICKEL, Missouri Coalition for Quality Care, on the state of assisted-living facilities post-COVID-19.
