Stanley Hospital Begins Expanded Administration of COVID Vaccines

Wednesday, February 3rd, 2021 -- 8:11 AM

In accordance with the Wisconsin Department of Health Services guidelines, several Ascension Wisconsin COVID-19 vaccination clinics have expanded access to include adults age 65 and older this week. 

79-year old Stephanie Dobrzynski of Thorp (pictured) was among the first patients to receive the COVID-19 vaccine at the community clinic conducted by Ascension Medical Group Wisconsin on the campus of Ascension Our Lady of Victory Hospital in Stanley.

AMG-WI has been reviewing medical records for all existing patients and identifying those who fit the eligible criteria. AMG-WI has been and will continue to proactively and personally contact eligible patients over the coming weeks by text, email and phone.

Please do not call Ascension Wisconsin hospitals or clinics regarding vaccinations. AMG-WI will contact eligible patients.  Appointments for the vaccine are scheduled in advance.

No walk-in vaccinations are available at this time, but this may be adjusted in the future as additional vaccine doses become available.  Ascension Wisconsin continues to vaccinate frontline healthcare workers, first responders, police and fire personnel, community health centers and dental office staff, and Ascension affiliated and non-affiliated Group 1a individuals.

As of the end of January, Ascension Wisconsin has administered more than 31,000 COVID-19 vaccine doses across the state.  Ascension Wisconsin is phasing the rollout to include additional Group 1b individuals based on CDC and DHS guidance and based on availability of COVID-19 vaccine.

Ascension Wisconsin will continue to provide updates as additional vaccination opportunities become available.  For additional information, please visit: https://healthcare.ascension.org/COVID-19/vaccinations.
