All Personnel:   

New Passages highly encourages all personnel to obtain the flu and H1N1 Vaccination.  We are committed to working with personnel in efforts to obtain the vaccination.   

 

H1N1 Vaccine Availability 

Macomb County Health Department

is holding H1N1 Vaccine clinics for all over the age of 6 months at:  

  • Southeast Health Center, 25401 Harper Ave., St. Clair Shores (north of 10 Mile Road), Mondays 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.

For more information from the Macomb County Health Department you can visit their web site at: http://www.macombcountymi.gov/PUBLICHEALTH/ 

 

 

 

 

Oakland County Health Department

Vaccine now available to all members of the public.

 

Locations

North Oakland Health Center, 1200 N Telegraph Rd, Bldg. 34E, Pontiac

South Oakland Health Center, 27725 Greenfield Rd, Southfield

West Oakland Health Center, 1010 East West Maple, Walled Lake

Hours

 

Monday: 12:00pm - 8:00pm
Tuesday-Friday: 9:00am - 5:00pm

 

Genesee County Health Department

Vaccine now available to all members of the public. Please click the link above for their latest locations 

 

 

 

Staff who have Blue Care Network will be covered in full when the vaccine arrives, at no cost, with availability at Rite-Aid, Kroger, and Meijer. 

Staff without insurance will have to go to a retail store, occupational health clinic or their county health department.  Prices will range from free (at many County Health Departments) to $30 per vaccine.  New reports indicate that staff without insurance will have the administration fee waived, as it will be billed back to the local health department.  Information is not clear at this time.      

Consumers will be able to obtain vaccines through their Primary Care Physician or Health Department.  Those that are covered by Medicaid or Medicare will have full coverage. 

The CDC has prioritized the following groups for the first wave of vaccines (due any day). 
  1. Pregnant women;
  2. People who live with or care for children younger than six months of age;
  3. Health care and emergency services personnel;
  4. Children and young adults from 6 months to 24 years old;
  5. People ages 25–64 with chronic medical conditions that increase their risk of complications from influenza infection.

 For the most part, New Passages consumers are expected to qualify under category 5.  According to BCN and many health departments, our staff will not qualify as health care workers for the first round of vaccines—only first responders will qualify—watch the news and read the paper—this information changes daily. 

The first round of vaccines is expected any day.  It is unknown when additional vaccines will be available.  You must be vigilant to seeking this information at the local level—news changes daily.  As soon as New Passages receives the information, we will pass it on to you.

frankLiving With Mental Illness: One Man’s Journey  

Frank has faced some of life’s toughest situations; mental illness, alcoholism, imprisonment, homelessness, and is now on the long road to recovery.  Like many people suffering from mental illness, he went undiagnosed for most of his life.  Growing up in Roseville MI, he was one of eight siblings, attended Roseville High School, and never knew why he suffered from severe bouts of depression and anxiety.  At the age of twenty-three he was convicted of a non-violent conspiracy crime and sentenced to fifteen years in federal prison.  Upon his release, Frank’s depression worsened. He became dependent on alcohol and spent several years living on the street and shuffling between shelters.   It was during this time that Frank realized he needed to seek help for the depression and anxiety he was experiencing.  He went to a series of walk-in centers and an alcohol rehabilitation program at St. Johns in Brighton before being referred to New Passages Outpatient Services in Macomb County in March 2009.
