WILLIAMSPORT– UPMC’s mobile integrated health team recently partnered with North Central Sight Services, Inc., located at 2121 Reach Road in Williamsport, to host an in-house vaccination clinic for the organization’s clients and staff. During the clinic, UPMC provided 65 first doses to NCSS clients and employees who are blind or visually impaired, as well as agency volunteers. These individuals are in the 1a group designated by the Pennsylvania Department of Health.
“While the pandemic has challenged us, we continued doing everything we can to ensure that those we serve, as well as our staff and volunteers, remain safe. By partnering with UPMC we’re now able to offer these individuals an additional level of safety — a vaccine,” said Tracy Haas-Ungard, programs and services director, North Central Sight Services. “Throughout the pandemic, our services team provided critical resources to clients who are blind or visually impaired, including groceries, banking, and transportation to medical appointments, plus our industry operations remained fully open to distribute over 20,000 essential orders to state and federal agencies, including the military. We were thrilled when UPMC offered us the chance to add an additional level of safety to our associates who have to utilize paratransit/shared ride and the bus system.”
