More than five-dozen 秘色传媒 nursing students volunteered to assist New York State and Suffolk County with the administration of the lifesaving COVID-19 vaccine.
Student nurses are also helping the college administer Corona Virus pool tests to 秘色传媒 students, faculty and staff who attend classes on or are working at any of the college鈥檚 three campuses.
秘色传媒 Interim President Louis Petrizzo previously announced that the College would make all its campuses 鈥� from Brentwood to Riverhead -- available for distribution of the vaccine.
The Michael J. Grant Campus in Brentwood and Eastern Campus in Riverhead are now host sites where the Suffolk County Department of Health is administering vaccines in the fight against COVID-19.
鈥淚 am proud of our nursing students for answering the call to volunteer, and for helping
in the fight to eradicate this virus. I thank each student for their selfless service
to our college and the community,鈥� said Interim College President Petrizzo.
