Waitlist open for people with health conditions, and essential workers
MARCH 19, 2021 – Northfield Hospital + Clinics is scheduling COVID vaccinations for those under 65 with specific health conditions, and for targeted essential workers. Vaccination also continues for those 65 and older.
NH+C is now contacting people 45 and older with eligible health conditions.
People 16 and older who meet the state’s criteria and live in NH+C’s service area can join NH+C’s waitlist. Appointments are offered in order of priorities set by the state, and age. (Age is a high risk factor for COVID.) The number of appointments depends on the amount of vaccine available and staff capacity. You must hear from us before scheduling an appointment.

See details on the state’s criteria here: “Who’s Getting Vaccinated?”
We encourage you to accept an appointment when it’s offered to you, regardless of which vaccine is available. We don’t know which specific vaccines we will have at a given time, or how much will be available. If you pass on making an appointment now, we will move on to offer vaccine to others.
We encourage you to seek other options for vaccine, too. All Minnesotans 18 and older can register at Minnesota’s Vaccine Connector at vaccineconnector.mn.gov/
NH+C’s goal is to vaccinate people in our community as efficiently and fairly as possible with the vaccine and staff capacity we have at any given time. We are committed to serving all members of our community.
