First vaccine doses are available without appointments on Tuesday 7 September from 12 AM to 7 PM. The event is held on department T0 of the health care center on Steniuksenkatu 2.

– The event is open to everyone 15 years of age or older, including everyone who lives in Rauma. This applies to foreigners as well. We especially hope that young people and young adults would come for the vaccination, head nurse Marja Lehtimäki says.

The vaccination event is held in a safe manner with safe distances and face masks.

The person receiving the vaccine must bring personal identification with them, either an id-card, passport, or Kela card.

More information about risk groups, vaccines and changing the vaccines is available at rauma.fi/covid-vaccinations.

Signage guiding people to the vaccination location will be improved

Health care services will increase and improve signage guiding people to the vaccination location.

– We aim to improve our services based on feedback from customers. More signage will be added so that arriving to the department T0 is as smooth and easy as it can be, Lehtimäki says.

The department T0 is located close to the covid-testing lane. The department is accessed from the lower door at the end of Kaunisjärvi. The upper door leads to the Monipoli, which do not have direct access to vaccinations.
