Heidi Broussard, RN, BSN, CIC, Chief Nursing Officer administers the first COVID-19 vaccine to Michelle Glatter, RN, BSN, CIC, Infection Control Preventionist/Employee Health Manager

 

Beginning Thursday, healthcare workers at Abbeville General were offered the COVID-19 Vaccine. Vaccinations continued throughout the day Friday.  Another shipment of vaccines are expected to arrive Monday and vaccines will be administered throughout Monday and Tuesday until the supply is exhausted.  Among those vaccinated so far, at least a dozen medical doctors and providers in the community took advantage of this opportunity to help stop the COVID-19 pandemic.

When available, everyone is encouraged to take the vaccine, in order to protect yourself, your co-workers, your family, your community, and your world.
