Public‑health staff: town reenrolled in state vaccine program; director to depart at month‑end
Summary
A town staffer reported the town is reenrolled in the state vaccine program, the public‑health nurse will return from leave to help plan earlier fall clinics, and the health‑department director plans to leave at the end of the month.
A health‑department staff member introduced in roll call as Jericho told the council the town has been reenrolled in the state vaccine program and said planning for fall vaccine clinics will start earlier this year.
"We're reenrolled in the state vaccine program," Jericho said, adding that Erin, the public‑health nurse, is returning from maternity leave and will help with planning. Jericho noted some federal constraints remain on vaccine ordering and timing and said those rules will influence clinic schedules.
Jericho also reported the town health director plans to leave at the end of the month, said an interim period is expected and that a hiring process is underway to fill the position ahead of the fall vaccination season.
