Virtual Care replaces Retail Clinics
Throughout the pandemic, patients and clinicians used virtual care to stay safe and provide effective care. Sick visits and minor injuries can and are now conveniently addressed through virtual visits. As we continue to look forward, we recognized that the retail care model has been replaced by virtual care. Therefore, effective July 6, MetroHealth is no longer operating retail clinics at Discount Drug Mart locations.
MetroHealth Pharmacies now Offering Free COVID Vaccines
Free COVID-19 vaccines are now available at all MetroHealth Pharmacy locations. With 10 MetroHealth Pharmacy locations throughout Cuyahoga County, this allows more convenience and increased access to COVID-19 vaccines.
Participants are encouraged to schedule an appointment to get vaccinated online through their MyChart account (if you are a MetroHealth patient) or by visiting MetroHealth's COVID-19 vaccine scheduler. Patients who need help scheduling their vaccine may call 216-778-6100. Walk-ins will also be accepted at all sites.
All pharmacies will offer the Pfizer vaccine, which can be given to anyone age 12 and up, except Broadway, which will offer only the Moderna vaccine for those 18 and up. When patients get their first dose, they'll be scheduled for their second dose. Minors must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. They also must complete a registration/consent form and bring it to the appointment.
