I wanted you to know that in the next two weeks, Griffin Hospital will be hosting several Covid-19 Vaccine Clinics for residents of Derby and Ansonia!
In addition to Griffin’s weekly Thursday vaccine clinic at the Ansonia Armory, they are also teaming up with Iglesia de Dios Nuevos Comienzos, the Boys and Girls Club and Abundant Life Ministries to host vaccine clinics at those locations.
The clinics will be held on April 22 from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. at the Armory in Ansonia; April 26 from 4-7 p.m. at Iglesia de Dios Nuevos Comienzos in Derby; April 28 from 9 a.m.-noon at the Boys and Girls Club of the Lower Naugatuck Valley in Ansonia; and April 30 from 9 a.m.-noon at Abundant Life Fellowship Ministries in Ansonia.
These free to the public walk-in clinics are available without appointment and the vaccine will be administered on a first come, first served basis while supplies last.
Masks are required and social distancing will be enforced. Insurance information will be collected at registration, but insurance coverage is not required.
Those being vaccinated will incur no out of pocket cost.
“Griffin’s courageous caregivers have worked tirelessly throughout the pandemic to provide residents of the Lower Naugatuck Valley and surrounding communities with a range of vital services from heroic hospital care for those suffering serious complications of coronavirus infection, widely available COVD-19 testing that helped limit the spread of COVID-19, and now lifesaving COVID-19 vaccination in mass vaccination sites operating in Shelton and Naugatuck as well in numerous community-based clinics throughout the Valley and beyond intended to bring vaccination into the neighborhoods where people live in order to make it highly accessible.
"We are grateful for the opportunity to provide community vaccination clinics in Derby and Ansonia and appreciate the tremendous support and collaboration of community leaders and organizations who have facilitated vaccination events and actively participated in our outreach effort,” said Pat Charmel, President and CEO of Griffin Hospital.
“I want to thank Griffin Hospital and Pat Charmel for always working to address the health needs of the Valley and for making sure residents throughout the area have free, safe and local access to these vaccines,” Klarides-Ditria said.
“The doctors, nurses and thousands of other caregivers who make up the Griffin family have always gone above and beyond for us. They are true heroes.”
