Estimated Median Percentage of Residents and Staff Members at SNFs Enrolled in the Pharmacy Partnership for Long-Term Care Program Who Received at Least 1 Dose of COVID-19 Vaccine, by Jurisdiction—United States, December 18, 2020-January 17, 2021 Includes skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) with at least 1 on-site clinic conducted through the Pharmacy Partnership for Long-Term Care Program, December 18, 2020-January 17, 2021. Only jurisdictions with >50 CMS-certified SNFs with a vaccination clinic conducted during the first month of the program and available denominator data (n = 40 states) are shown. The number of residents eligible for vaccination was estimated using the mean of National Healthcare Safety Network weekly resident census counts for each facility during December 14, 2020-January 17, 2021 (11 376 facilities). The number of staff members eligible for vaccination was estimated using CMS Payroll-Based Journal counts of unique staff members for each facility during July-September 2020 (11 134 facilities). Estimates reflect staff members vaccinated through the Pharmacy Partnership for Long-Term Care Program; additional staff members might have been vaccinated through other programs.
