Director of Ohio Department of Aging Ursel McElroy contacted LeadingAge Ohio and asked that we share the following:
Dear Colleagues,
I am pleased to invite you and your front-line staff to join medical experts and state officials for a round table discussion. Ohio’s long-term care providers have the opportunity to be some of the first in the state to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. The first round of vaccination is underway and currently a large number of staff have chosen to delay or reject the vaccine. We acknowledge the hesitancy of receiving a new vaccine and would like to give these employees direct access to experts. They can listen, learn, and ask questions. We strongly urge you to allow staff to join at a time during their shift, individually or as a team. By increasing the number of staff who are vaccinated, we can greatly reduce the risk of COVID-19 outbreaks in facilities and help protect their families.
Please register soon to take advantage of these live sessions (click on time you would like to attend):
