Broward County, Florida – Broward Health begins Covid-19 vaccinations for the public on Wednesday, December 30.

Those eligible to receive the vaccine must call Broward Health’s Nurse Connect line at 954-759-7500 to be screened and scheduled.
Credentialed medical staff members should call their regional medical staff office to schedule an appointment.
Patients must pre-register; No walk-ups to be accepted. Once registered, a location will be provided.
