A new order from the Department of Health aims to get more staff at nursing homes vaccinated.
Yesterday, state officials at the DOH set an expectation for all of Pennsylvania’s skilled nursing facilities to have at least 80 percent of their staff vaccinated for COVID-19 by October 1st.
The Department of Health says that if nursing homes don’t meet that threshold, they will require more frequent testing for unvaccinated staff.
Right now only one nursing home in Butler County has more than 80 percent of their staff vaccinated.
