AMCNO Sponsors “Vote and Vaccinate” Program on Election Day

The Academy of Medicine of Cleveland and Northern Ohio (AMCNO) hosted its 12th annual “Vote and Vaccinate” program on Election Day, November 8, 2011. The intent of this annual program is to provide individuals with an opportunity to receive seasonal flu and pneumonia immunizations at various polling sites through Cuyahoga County on Election Day. Vote and Vaccinate is a parallel program to the voting process and is not connected in any way with the Board of Elections. 

The AMCNO was pleased to have participation again this year from our program sponsors: Cleveland Department of Health, Parma Community General Hospital and Saint Vincent Medical Center. The AMCNO expresses its sincere gratitude to site staff who participated in this worthwhile program at Marion Sterling School, North Royalton United Methodist Church, Parma Heights Baptist Church, Parma South Presbyterian Church, Pilgrim Congregational United Church of Christ and Ridgewood United Methodist Church. The AMCNO plans to host this community event again in 2012. If your group or hospital is interested in participating with the AMCNO as a co-sponsor or host a site, please contact the AMCNO offices at 216.520.1000.
