Flu shot program.
The Community flu shots were held on Nov. 1st at Village Hall. Over all the numbers
were down, probably due to availability of the shots. Almost 200 vaccinations were
given.
Citizens Medical Reserve Corps
The letter to help recruit Medical professionals to the medical reserve corps needs to have
dentists added to the list. The letter will have Peggy be the contact person for the Board
and will also have the health departments email address.
EMA drafted a form for potential members to complete. This form will be available on
line, or by contacting the health department. Presently the data will be put in by existing
staff. The upkeep after that will be minimal and will be done by existing staff.
There will be some training that is needed but it can be done on line or through EMA.
For now we need to get the word out there and get people signed up. The health dept. will
be sending out letters to medical professionals after Thanksgiving. They will also put an
article in the Village Newsletter as well as use the enews and the website.
