As the demand for a large-scale regional mass vaccination site diminishes in Greater Lowell, Lowell General Hospital will shift its Mass Vaccination Program into normal hospital operations at its Saints Campus beginning Tuesday, June 22.

As National Nurses Week comes to a close and we usher in National Hospital Week, please join us in honoring all those who have worked so hard to protect our community in this challenging year.

Congratulations to the Cardiac Cath Lab team for being featured in an 8-page spotlight article with the nationally popular clinical trade magazine Cath Lab Digest. The article highlights Lowell General Hospital's Heart and Vascular Center facilities, Cath Lab interventions, procedures and protocols, quality measures and offers a glimpse into special protocols and daily challenges faced by the team with the COVID-19 pandemic.

April 14 was the first community vaccination program held at Lowell General Hospital’s Mass Vaccination Program at the Cross River Center. Thanks to a partnership with the Greater Lowell Health Alliance and about 50 area organizations, about 1,000 members of the hardest-to-reach communities in the region received their first dose vaccination.

Today the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), U.S. Federal Drug Administration (FDA) and Massachusetts Department of Public Health directed providers to pause the administration of the Johnson & Johnson (Janssen) COVID-19 vaccine as they investigate reports of blood clots in six women who received the J&J vaccine. None of these cases appear to have occurred in Massachusetts.
