Health. Covid-19: vaccination extends to liberals

The circuit is rigorously signposted, like the two temporary vaccination centers installed since Monday at the central hospital and at the Nancy-Brabois CHRU. But this time, the device concerns liberal health professionals over 50, as well as auxiliaries, life assistants and firefighters. First, the administrative reception, followed by a pre-vaccination consultation with parameters taken. Finally the injection and a rest period of about fifteen minutes.

Since this Tuesday morning and for a few more weeks, the Marcel-Brot tower, usually dedicated to paramedical training and which also hosts part of the IT services of the CHRU, has cleared one of its amphitheatres to transform it into a vaccination center anti-covid. By Thursday, the CPN could also release some of its premises to strengthen the device.

An exclusive telephone exchange

“The Marcel-Brot tower offers an ideal configuration which allows to respect the imperatives of distancing and confidentiality; an easily accessible place which also has a large car park ”. Responsible for the smooth running of operations, Pascal Boudin-Corvina, director of the CHRU, coordinator of schools and institutes within the hospital establishment, assisted by Mireille Gaudron, senior health officer in the care department, hardly had any moments of respite.

Because if most of the volunteers have registered beforehand, by email or by telephone, alerted by their respective professional organization, we must be able to respond to the slightest requests. “We have also installed a telephone exchange which receives several hundred calls per day”.

Present as long as there is demand

It is difficult to say exactly how many doctors, nurses, physiotherapists and other liberals over 50 are affected by this campaign. “We don’t have precise figures. Several thousand probably ”.

This Tuesday, for this first day of vaccinations, about fifty professionals made the trip. “But the meetings were rushed throughout the day, not to mention the unexpected requests (which are not desirable) but which were nevertheless taken into account.

“We have been living here for an indefinite period, probably several weeks. As long as there is demand, we will respond ”.
