Glenview Terrace, a skilled nursing facility in Glenview, is among Illinois’ first skilled nursing facilities allowed to issue COVID-19 vaccinations.
In accordance with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the facility at 1511 Greenwood Road was cleared to allow CVS Pharmacy to administer the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine to its health care workers, short-term rehabilitation patients and long-term residents.
“We can finally see the end of the tunnel,” Glenview Terrace administrator Allen Hollander said in a release.
Though vaccinations have begun at Glenview Terrace, indoor family visitations remain suspended until further notice from the Illinois Department of Public Health.
