More Than 300 New COVID-19 Vaccination Locations Added
Update from IDPH, 2/11/2021

The number of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) vaccination locations across
Illinois continues to increase. More than 340 new retail pharmacy locations
have been added to the list of COVID-19 vaccination sites open to the public. Illinois now has more than 850 vaccination locations open to the public. The new sites include Walgreens stores and CVS locations. The State of Illinois is also partnering with Hy-Vee, Jewel-Osco, Kroger, Mariano’s, Meijer to provide COVID-19 vaccinations.

Vaccinations are available only by appointment at this time and we encourage you to check back frequently for open appointments. The demand far exceeds availability at this time. Individuals should be signing up for an appointment to receive their second dose while they are getting their first vaccination.

plan and eligibility, and answers to frequently asked questions about the COVID-19 vaccine, go

Loneliness can have negative effects on both physical and mental health, especially for the older adults. The Covid-19 pandemic has heightened everyone's concern and ability to connect with families, engage our minds and support our well-being. The senior living and home care industry has been affected as we all try to keep our older adults safe and connected with families.

You can help us reduce senior isolation and bridge the "digital divide". Do you have an old iPad or tablet available to donate? Gentle Home Services along with a host of campaign sponsors are collecting iPads and tablets during the month of September. We will distribute them to older adults in need to help them connect with their families. For more information and to schedule a drop-off or porch pick up at: www.seniorlivingexperts.com/ipad or www.gentlehomecare.com/events.html.
