OMS Covid-19 Vaccination Status

Dear OSOMS member:

As you are aware there has been much discussion over the new Covid-19 vaccine and those first in line to receive it.  OMS provide critical care to patients in need and as such should be considered a front-line health provider. 

The OSOMS has received confirmation from Governor DeWine’s office that OMS and their high-risk support staff will be in Phase 1A for vaccinations. We anticipate the guidance protocol will be released shortly.  For facility needs, they are suggesting contacting your local health department for guidance on next steps and to clarify your role as high risk for exposure.

While getting the vaccine may be a personal choice, in our field with high-risk exposure, we encourage our members and their staff to receive it.

Thank you!
