Ascension Sacred Heart Scheduling Thursday COVID-19 Vaccination Appointments
January 11, 2021
Ascension Medical Group Sacred Heart plans to hold another COVID-19 vaccination clinic on Thursday at Olive Baptist Church in Pensacola from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. The vaccination team from Ascension Sacred Heart will vaccinate approximately 800 people aged 65 and older.
Vaccinations are by appointment only and walk-ups will not be accepted. Vaccinations for the Olive Baptist clinic must be scheduled online by visiting www.getsacredheartcare.com. Appointments were available at the time this story was published.
The State of Florida has not received nearly enough vaccine to provide the shots to the 4.5 million residents of the state who are 65 and older. Ascension Sacred Heart has stepped up to support the community, the state, and the Florida Department of Health in distributing vaccine as it becomes available.
Ascension Medical Group has vaccinated approximately 5,000 seniors in Escambia and Santa Rosa County in the past week. Scheduled appointments have filled very quickly in clinics held so far, and we understand the great anxiety about the serious threat of COVID-19 and the tremendous demand for the new vaccines.
Additional vaccination clinics will be scheduled by Ascension and the Department of Health as more vaccine is distributed to the state. In the meantime, please continue with the measures that can protect all of us from the spread of COVID-19. Those include: wear a mask in public places, stay home as much as possible, avoid congested indoor areas, maintain physical distance from others, and wash hands frequently.

I had an appointment for 2/19 at 3 P.M. When I arrived I was told they closed at 12:45. Why wasn’t I notified?
Me and my sister, an brother are looking for our covid. We have been trying since this started we can also do Pace, and Milton area
I need HELP registering for the Covid vaccination. I am Legally Blind and my wife is not very computer literate. I am 69 years old with some health conditions. Please help me register. Thank you.
Can 3 month snowbird residence get the vaccine
My husband just came home from broken hip and has lung problems. He needs to get the vaccine. I need it also. I am 86 and he is 87.
Baptist hospital doctors scheduled there patients. Wish Sacred Heart would do the same. Been a patient there a long time..for heart and GP.
My husband and I are over 70. Would like to get an appointment for Covid-19 vaccine.
Need to get covid vaccination. My wife and I are 80+
I will be 71 on 3/23/2021. I have been diagnosed with both Crohn’s Disease and Irritable Bowel Disease which I medicate for daily. I feel very vulnerable and have been in quarantine since March of 2020.
Please help. My wife and I are 80+ have tried every source to get covid vaccination to no avail. Thank you in advance
Please Help My wife and I are 80+ and have tried every source to get covid vaccination to no avail.
Husband and I are over 65 yrs
My husband only has 20 percent lung function, 70 yr. old and we can’t even get him appointment. There is something wrong with this system
.
I and my husbnd would like to receive the covid 19 vaccine. We are both over 65 with histories of underlying conditions. We have tried filling out 3 different forms and have gotten replys that say we will get an email or call back. We did have an appointment on Janurary 29 but the next day got an email that the appointment was cancelled. Please help.
I am 86 years old and have tried five times to register on-line for the vaccine – starting when wear-tv first listed a questionnaire to complete to indicate a desire to receive the vaccine. I next accessed the Ascension site to again try to register with no response received either by phone or email. I am beginning to wonder if the powers to be making the appointments have decided that 86 is “too old”. I do have congestive heart problems, a mitral valve replacement, and immune system compromises – but I am still kicking, driving, and running my own home! Would appreciate some positive advice!!
I am 70 years old, and I would like a vaccine please. Thank you
Trying to schedule for husband and myself. Continually says no times available. Do I keep trying? Or is there a better way? I’m 70, husband is 73 & we both have comorbidities.
Please address timing for Snowbirds who are over 65 with underlying conditions. We are here 4 months a year at different condos each year. I only see reference to “residents”… we can’t go back home twice to get the vaccine while we’re here helping to support the local tourism industry during the off-months.
Can’t seem to get an answer anywhere. Willing to go to Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi…

The CDC/FDA today announced it is time to open up to the next phase of vaccination, to include those with underlying conditions. What are these underlying conditions and are you taking steps to do this?
I am 77 years old. My wife is 79 years old. I have a history of COPD, Diabetes and heart issues. My wife has Lupus. We both need the vaccine
