Description:Based on recommendations from the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), an independent panel of medical and public health experts, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends residents of long-term care facilities (LTCFs) be included among those offered the first supply of COVID-19 vaccines. Making sure LTCF residents can receive COVID-19 vaccination as soon as vaccine is available will help save the lives of those who are at the highest risk for infection and severe illness from COVID-19.
CDC has provided frequently asked questions and answers especially for LTCF residents and their families to help everyone understand the importance of COVID-19 vaccination. The information below is especially tailored to help answer questions before vaccination. The CDC website offers many other free tools in multiple languages to help answer common questions that are not specific to LTCF residents.
