Parker Strives for 100% Vaccination for All

Since the first day that COVID vaccine became available to senior living, Parker was eager to arrange vaccinations for all its residents and staff. I am very proud to say that nearly all of our elders were fully vaccinated in the winter, as part of an aggressive, coordinated plan involving all of our campuses.

We have also made huge strides to vaccinate our staff members, each of whom has the discretion of deciding if he or she should be vaccinated. More than 75% of our employees have been inoculated, to date.

A Successful COVID-19 Vaccine Rollout

 A Successful COVID-19 Vaccine Rollout

Receiving the COVID-19 vaccine was a great way for us to begin 2021 at Parker. I am grateful that the state recognized the dire need that long-term care organizations have for the vaccine, and that we have been among the first in the state to receive it. We have carefully monitored information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which indicated that the benefits of the vaccine far outweigh any of the very limited risks. I believe there are several key elements that made our first round of the vaccine such a success.
