Nursing News

With the flu season approaching, once again charts will be reviewed for a list of residents who will be receiving the flu shot for the 2022-2023 season. In addition to the flu shot we will be offering Pneumococcal vaccinations (PPSV23 and PCV13) to anyone who does not have record of receiving them in the past. I will be distributing the Vaccine Information Statement (VIS) describing risks and benefits to the residents a week before the shots are given. This information can also be found on the CDC website. If you have any questions or concerns, I can be reached at 563-928-6461.

Thank you.
