County announces more homebound vaccinations

The Westchester County Department of Senior Programs and Services, DSPS, has announced additional availability of the COVID-19 vaccine for those who are homebound.  Any homebound individual, of any age, is eligible to receive the vaccine if you live in Westchester.  Caregivers for the homebound are also eligible. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, DSPS has vaccinated more than 3,000 homebound individuals across the county.

“Getting the vaccine is the one thing we all can do to protect ourselves and help stop the spread of COVID-19,” Westchester County Executive George Latimer said. “All people deserve the opportunity to receive the vaccine, and we want to make sure all homebound individuals have access to it. If you need a vaccine, please reach out to DSPS today.”

To make an appointment, reach out to DSPS at 813-6300.   If all information specialists are on the phone assisting other callers, please leave a message and
your call will be returned immediately.  The county Department of Health, in coordination with Empress EMS Services, has been vaccinating the homebound
throughout Westchester County. (Submitted)
