Are you ready for the COVID-19 vaccine?

Seniors, what does the COVID-19 vaccine mean to you?

November 20, 2020

Life is about to return to near normal; the COVID-19 vaccine is expected to be available as early as December 15th. However, not everyone who wants a vaccine will be able to get it immediately.

The CDC along with state and local health departments are currently working on distribution and prioritization plans, with health care workers and older adults being given high priority to receive the vaccine first. These vaccine distribution plans include provisions for distribution centers to work directly with senior living communities to speed up the distribution of the vaccine to those most in need, or at risk. This means individuals within senior living communities are going to be some of the first to receive the vaccine, even before those seniors in the general public. As we move in to 2021, senior living communities will continue to be some of the safest, most cost effective and enjoyable places to live.

What's Next for Seniors

Over the last year, with so much uncertainty, COVID-19 restrictions and lockdowns, plans for new senior living communities were placed on hold or delayed significantly. This has created higher demand, resulting in a limited supply of available senior living apartments. In the coming months, as vaccines are administered, smart seniors who have been afraid to venture out, or have been told by their children to stay at home, will begin to look at and reserve apartments in the more desirable senior living communities. This limited availability and higher demand make it imperative that those considering senior living begin their search as soon as possible.

How Independent Living is Different

Many believe all senior living communities are the same and that they are all affected by COVID-19 restrictions in the same way. Nothing could be farther from the truth!

To protect their residents and comply with local and state guidelines, each community must approach COVID-19 and the spread of the virus a little differently.
