As we head into the Fall season, it is once again time to review which of our Residents are eligible for seasonal immunizations to help protect them throughout cold and flu season.
This year, we will be offering the following vaccines:
Both the COVID-19 and influenza vaccines have been updated for this season to reflect circulating strains, as they are each year. The consent process for these two vaccines remains the same as in previous years.
If you have questions regarding eligibility for the Pneumococcal or RSV vaccines, our Clinical Coordinators would be pleased to assist.
To provide consent or to ask questions about your loved one’s immunizations, you are welcome to:
- Reply by email to: ">Family Support ();
- Call our Clinical Coordinators (Liel or Caitlin) at 204-453-4663, ext. 206;
- Contact Pedro, Infection Prevention and Control, at ext. 218; or
- Speak with your loved one’s neighbourhood’s nurse.
For additional immediate information, we have attached the Public Health fact sheets for each vaccine. We encourage you to review these resources and reach out to our team with any questions you may have.
Thank you for working together with us to help keep our Residents healthy and well throughout the coming season.
Warmest regards,
Sherry Heppner
Development Coordinator
