Dear CSN Family,
The COVID-19 vaccination site at the North Las Vegas Campus and the UNLV location are in the process of winding down operations as decline in demand across our community has been realized. To date, more than 150,000 doses of COVID-19 vaccines have been administered at the CSN Henderson, CSN North Las Vegas and the UNLV sites.
If you haven’t done so, I strongly encourage you to receive the vaccine. We all are anxious to return to as close to “normal” as possible. The more people who are vaccinated the closer we will get. The UNLV site will end first dose appointments this Friday, May 7. The site will remain open to administer second doses to those who receive their first vaccination at UNLV. This location will accept walk-in availability from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. through Friday, May 7. Remember, anyone 18 years and older can get vaccinated at UNLV, and appointments can be made online.
The CSN North Las Vegas location will be completing vaccinations on May 14. Anyone 16 years old or older can get vaccinated at this location, as this site provides the Pfizer vaccine. Appointments can be scheduled at online here as well. First and second doses are available, and if a first dose is administered at the North Las Vegas site the second dose will be scheduled at an alternate location.
The vaccination deployment has been an extraordinary effort in partnership and collaboration across southern Nevada. Students, faculty and staff at CSN, the School of Nursing and the Kirk Kerkorian School of Medicine at UNLV, Student Health, Nevada State College and the City of North Las Vegas have been instrumental. This has truly been a team effort from the start. I want to extend my sincere thanks to all who have worked so hard to make sure our community is safe.
In addition to the locations at CSN North Las Vegas and UNLV, vaccines are available at local pharmacies and community locations. For more information please refer to the Southern Nevada Health District.
Should you have additional questions, please contact our case management team at Wellness@csn.edu.
Stay safe and God bless.
