Renaissance Senior Living of Vero Beach to Begin COVID-19 Vaccinations as Early as Jan. 21

VERO BEACH, Fla. (January 20, 2021) - Renaissance Senior Living of Vero Beach, a premier senior living and memory care community in Vero Beach, Florida, will take a major step toward ensuring a healthy, safe community by offering COVID-19 vaccinations to all residents and team members starting on January 21.

Members of the senior community have been hard hit by the COVID-19 virus, and it continues to pose a high risk due to their age and possible underlying medical conditions — something the senior living community has worked tirelessly to counteract over the past several months of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Due to the high risk for seniors, as well as the increased risk of direct or indirect exposure for healthcare personnel, the CDC has included both populations in their recommended Phase 1 roll-out of vaccine administration.

“January 21st will be a great day for all of us at Renaissance Senior Living of Vero Beach. We’re incredibly thankful for the opportunity to offer this extra level of added protection to our residents and team members,” said Eric Sajid, Executive Director at Renaissance Senior Living of Vero Beach.

Renaissance Senior Living of Vero Beach has been diligent in their efforts to procure the vaccines, with first communications beginning in early fall of 2020.

As a result of ongoing communication with pharmacies at both the local and national levels, sufficient quantities of vaccines were secured for all residents and team members who wish to participate.

“The pandemic has brought unique challenges, but our residents and team members have shown incredible mental and physical fortitude throughout. We’re hopeful that this vaccine is one step forward on the road to reuniting our residents and their families,” said Sajid.

As the CDC recommends two doses of the vaccine for optimal protection against the virus, Renaissance Senior Living of Vero Beach has already scheduled tentative dates for the second dose of the vaccine.

Renaissance Senior Living of Vero Beach will continue to follow all COVID-19 safety guidelines set forth by the CDC following the administration of vaccinations, including N95 masks worn by all team members, social distancing, and regular wellness checks for all residents and team members.
