Staff and residents at New Hampshire s long-term care facilities are slated to receive the COVID-19 vaccine on Monday through a federal partnership with CVS and Walgreens.
But some facilities say they ve had minimal communication with their pharmacy partners, and still don t know when they ll get their vaccines.
One of those is Mountain View Community, a nursing home in Ossipee. Howard Chandler, the home s administrator, said the lack of communication has been frustrating. He believes people in long-term care settings, especially those that have had COVID-19 outbreaks, should get the vaccine sooner since they ve been at such high risk.
