We will be hosting a mobile vaccine and booster clinic on February 9 from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. in the commuter lot. In order for the Virginia Department of Health to know which vaccines and boosters to stock, please sign up for an appointment for the appropriate vaccine below. This is open to the public, we welcome family members and friends to sign up as well.
If not vaccinated and/or boosted, we encourage you to get the shot. Individuals who are up to date in their vaccinations/boosters are not required to quarantine if they are in close contact with a COVID positive individual.
Thank you for wearing your facemask at all times in doors, quarantining when feeling symptoms, keeping your distance, and washing your hands. It takes all of us working together to protect the health and safety of our community. As always, reach out if you have any questions or concerns about our COVID-19 mitigation efforts on campus.
Stay healthy!

On Tuesday, April 20, 2021, Ferrum College Nursing Program students dressed in their scrubs to assist in vaccinating the campus community against COVID-19.
The College partnered with the Virginia Department of Health, Carilion, Franklin County Public Safety, and the Ferrum Nursing Department to host a COVID-19 vaccination clinic in the Fitness Center on campus.
The clinic, which was free and open to campus members and members of the community who had previously registered, distributed ninety-five doses of the Moderna vaccine in three hours, from 12 – 3 p.m.
“We are thrilled to be able to assist our campus community members in protecting their health, as well as the health of others around them,” said Dean of Students and Pandemic Coordinator Nicole Lenez. “After a very dark year, there is light at the end of the tunnel.”
