Nursing Home COVID-19 Vaccination Data Dashboard

Overview

Long-term care facilities (LTCF) report COVID-19 data to CDC’s National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN), including weekly vaccination data for residents and healthcare personnel (HCP). The LTCF COVID-19 Module enables assessment of COVID-19 vaccination coverage through facility-reported information, including counts of residents and healthcare personnel, or staff, who received any COVID-19 vaccine.

CDC began collecting weekly vaccination data through the LTCF COVID-19 Module on December 14, 2020, as a voluntary reporting system. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) established COVID-19 vaccination reporting requirements for nursing homes effective May 13, 2021 (see: Federal Registerexternal icon). Detailed information about vaccination reporting requirements, including details about a grace period prior to enforcement, can be found in CMS memo QSO-21-19-NHexternal icon. The CMS reporting requirement only applies to CMS-certified nursing homes (i.e., skilled nursing facilities and/or nursing facilities).

This page displays data at the national and state level on COVID-19 vaccination coverage among residents and staff of CMS-certified nursing homes. These summaries represent data that nursing homes reported to the NHSN LTCF COVID-19 Module using weekly vaccination forms.

CDC updates this data dashboard weekly on Thursday at 8:00 am Eastern. As a result, the figures presented on this page may not exactly match data publicly posted by state health departments, CMS, or other federally coordinated programs.
