The Central Shenandoah Health District will move all online vaccine scheduling from PrepMod to VASE+.

Anyone scheduling an appointment at a clinic on or after Sept. 6 will be required to use the new VASE+ platform. Visit vase.vdh.virginia.gov to view CSHD COVID-19 vaccine clinic opportunities and schedule an appointment.

If you previously scheduled an appointment using PrepMod for a clinic after September 6, your appointment will automatically migrate to the new system, and you do not need to do anything else at this time. Walk-ins are still accepted at CSHD COVID-19 vaccine clinics.

“We are looking forward to providing our community with a user-friendly, intuitive platform to schedule COVID-19 vaccinations,” said Dr. Laura Kornegay, M.D., director, Central Shenandoah Health District. “COVID-19 cases continue to rise throughout CSHD, and we know vaccination is the most effective tool in preventing serious illness, hospitalization and death. It is imperative our vaccine scheduling platform is accessible and easy to use for everyone in our community.”

CSHD encourages all eligible persons to get their COVID-19 vaccine if they haven’t already done so. To find a vaccination site near you, please visit vaccinate.virginia.gov or vaccinefinder.org. If you have any problems scheduling your COVID-19 vaccine appointment, please call your local health department or visit [email protected].
