Home health, home care, and in-home supportive services
Check first with your usual healthcare provider. Many have agreed to vaccinate their patients who are eligible.
If your usual healthcare provider is unable to offer the vaccine, see more information about how to access the vaccine.
If you provide home care or personal care services for someone, download this attestation form (translated form coming soon). The person you are caring for (or their signatory) needs to fill it out and sign it. Bring the completed form to your vaccination appointment. It proves you are eligible to get vaccinated.
If you work through a Regional Center, use the form provided by your Regional Center to prove you are eligible.
