Genesis HealthCare System is now administering COVID-19 vaccinations by appointment to those age 16 and older, following the Ohio Department of Health’s (ODH) vaccination plan. Appointments can be made by using the self-scheduling option through the Genesis website. This new option to self-schedule makes it easier and quicker to get the vaccine.
Genesis now offers these three options for scheduling a vaccine appointment.
Option 1: Self-schedule – Pick the day and time for your appointment by going to genesishcs.org/vaccine and clicking on the link in Option 1. All appointments scheduled through this method are for the Johnson & Johnson vaccine and only require one shot. People must be 18 years of age and older to receive the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. Those who are registering someone who is 16- or 17-years-old should use option 2 or 3.
Option 2: Call to schedule – Call 740-297-8610 to talk with a representative and schedule.
Option 3: Receive a call back – Go to genesishcs.org/vaccine and click on the link under Option 3, then submit required information. A representative will call back to schedule an appointment. This may take longer than using Option 1 or 2.
Those who have appointments to get their vaccine at the Genesis COVID-19 Vaccination Center should keep their appointment and arrive at their scheduled time. The center is located in the former Elder Beerman store at Colony Square Mall at 3575 Maple Ave., Zanesville. Those with appointments should enter through the outside entrance on the west (back) side of the mall. There is no access to the center from inside the mall. Appointments are required; walk-ins are not accepted.
Northside Pharmacies located in Muskingum County will also administer the vaccine at the Genesis Vaccination Center located at the mall. Northside Pharmacies in Cambridge and Somerset will administer vaccines at their stores by appointment.
