Dear Navion Extended Family,
As you have undoubtedly heard, the Food and Drug Administration has granted Emergency Use Authorization for COVID-19 vaccines from Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna. Let me assure you that we are actively preparing for our residents and associates to be among the first to receive the vaccines.
Distribution at Navion will consist of multiple vaccine clinics conducted onsite by our pharmacy partners Walgreens and CVS. Through those partnerships, we are providing immunizations to residents and employees free of charge.
While we understand that some people may be anxious about the vaccines, we encourage our residents and staff to get vaccinated—for their well-being and in the interests of everyone at Navion.
Chief Executive Officer
Walgreens and CVS pharmacies will each conduct three immunization clinics at every Navion community.
Residents and employees receive the first dose.
Group from Clinic 1 receives the second dose. Those not included in Clinic 1 receive the first dose.
Group from Clinic 2 receives the second dose.
We are working nonstop to pinpoint dates and plans for each location. Please check with your Navion community for the latest information.
