Brookdale's response to COVID-19 | Brookdale Senior Living Newsroom
The residents and families had a blast at our Valentine’s Day dance
Our party for the Big Game was a success. We also had a tea party for a few of our ladies.
When Bill and Louise began considering senior living options for Bill's sister, Pam, the availability of the COVID-19 vaccine became a major point of interest for their next steps. Now, after receiving the vaccine and transitioning to her new community, Pam is an official resident of Brookdale Cary.
Efforts towards COVID-19 prevention have become part of our daily lives, and we are so pleased to share that our Brookdale residents and associates are among the first group to have access to a COVID-19 vaccine. We are partnering with CVS Health through the federal government’s Pharmacy Partnership for Long-Term Care Program and will be having our first vaccine clinic on February 6th between10:00AM-4:00PM for community residents and associates who are interested in receiving the vaccine, at Brookdale in Forest Grove. Together, we can take action to prevent COVID-19. #BrookdaleHope Learn more about the COVID-19 vaccine here:
