90% Or More Staff At Least Partially Vaccinated At 91 Maryland Nursing Facilities
BALTIMORE, (WJZ) -- Ninety-one skilled nursing homes and congregate facilities statewide have gotten at least 90 percent of their staffs partially or fully vaccinated against COVID-19.
That's according to the Maryland Department of Health, which released an update Monday to its list of top- and bottom-ranked nursing facilities when it comes to vaccination rates among staff.
Notably, 100 percent of staff at 19 of those facilities have gotten at least one dose of the vaccine. In contrast, 10 facilities have vaccination rates of 61 percent or lower. Another 13 facilities were singled out by the MDH for not providing adequate data on their staffs' vaccination rates.
"I want to commend the staff at the 91 nursing facilities in the state where 90 percent or more of staff now have at least one dose of a life-saving COVID-19 vaccine," said MDH Secretary Dennis R. Schrader. "The state has imposed an additional $112,500 in fines on 32 facilities that are failing to comply with protocols and putting lives at risk."
Under vaccination protocols that took effect Sept. 1, all nursing facility staff throughout the state must have at least one dose of the vaccine. Facilities that fall short of this requirement or do not submit vaccination data to the state could face fines and disciplinary action.
"Despite knowing how susceptible our vulnerable seniors are to contracting COVID-19 or a variant and the possibility of hospitalization and death, many nursing facilities are still not complying with measures put in place to keep people safe," said Maryland Department of Aging Secretary Rona E. Kramer. "They are leaving the state with no choice but to explore and implement additional enforcement measures."
Data on nursing facility residents and staff vaccination rates is published weekly through the Skilled Nursing Facilities Vaccination Dashboard.
