Do you need help making a COVID-19 vaccine appointment?

For those who struggle with the online registration process, family and friends may complete the registration for you. Make sure you have your health insurance card available when registering. Also, staff at the Senior Center (508-393-5035) and Health Department (508-393-5009) are available to assist residents if technology is an issue.

Additionally, the Commonwealth created a new call center to help residents 75 and older more easily schedule an appointment if they do not have internet. The COVID-19 Vaccine Scheduling Resource Line is a dedicated telephone line available to residents 75 and older. The line will be open Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM – 5:00 PM. Call center workers will have the same access to appointments that users will see on the public website. The line can be accessed by dialing 2–1–1 and selecting the prompt for “Help Scheduling a Vaccine Appointment.”
