Summit Community Center Serves as Vaccination Site

Community Center administers COVID Vaccines

As part of ongoing efforts to fight the COVID-19 pandemic, the City of Summit, in partnership with Atlantic Health System’s Overlook Medical Center, has established the Summit Community Center on 100 Morris Ave. as a location to administer COVID-19 vaccines.

Starting Monday, February 8, individuals in Phases 1A and 1B may register with Atlantic Health System online to receive the COVID-19 vaccine at the Community Center or another Atlantic Health location. At this time, vaccine supply is extremely limited and appointments will only be made available to eligible recipients as supply allows. To learn more about who is eligible, visit covid19.nj.gov.

Vaccinations will be by appointment only beginning on Monday, February 8, 2021 and administered Monday to Saturday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. when vaccine supplies are available. No walk-ins will be accepted. The process requires people to register to receive a vaccination appointment alert at https://www.atlantichealth.org. When vaccine is available, Atlantic Health System will send a notification to schedule an appointment.

Those with an appointment are asked to arrive no sooner than 15 minutes before their scheduled time.

Wearing a mask and social distancing will be required.

For parking and additional instructions, please visit the Atlantic Health System website or visit the City of Summit online.

Senior citizens and residents without internet access may call the Department of Community Services at 908-277-2932 for assistance with signing up for a vaccination alert notification. Please do not contact the DCP to schedule an appointment; they will only be assisting people without internet access to receive a vaccination appointment alert notification. All appointments will be scheduled through Atlantic Health System.

FROM THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY: Vaccination phases are tentative and subject to change. The movement between vaccination eligibility phases may be fluid. One phase may overlap with another. Not all individuals in each phase will be vaccinated before opening to additional groups, and not all groups within a specific phase will be made eligible to receive the vaccine at the same time.
