HEALTH SERVICE GUIDE ARCHIVE — HEALTHCARE, MENTAL HEALTH & AGING

Rockland's September 23 RCC vaccine clinic has ended. Here is the service record.

The 10 a.m.–2 p.m. window has passed. This permanent guide preserves the County's posted logistics and the unresolved difference among its vaccine listings; it is not a current clinic notice.

The Rockland Edit service card for Rockland County's September 23 walk-in vaccine clinic at the RCC Fieldhouse, listing 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and a call-first note for MMR, RSV or pneumonia vaccine
Clinic service card by The Rockland Edit, based on Rockland County's September 10 announcement and September 23 calendar listing. The event window has passed. This is an original information graphic—not a County notice, medical image, photograph of the clinic or proof of vaccine inventory.

What the records said

  • Status: the September 23 window has ended.
  • Posted time: Wednesday, September 23, 10 a.m.–2 p.m.
  • Where: Rockland Community College Fieldhouse, 145 College Road, Suffern.
  • Registration: the County had advertised no appointment or preregistration, with registration on site.
  • Confirmed overlap: both County records listed flu vaccination.
  • Unresolved difference: the records did not agree on MMR, RSV or pneumonia vaccine.

The posted window has passed

The County's 10 a.m.–2 p.m. window ended September 23. Do not travel to RCC based on this page. The Rockland Edit found no official extension or post-event outcome and does not claim that the clinic occurred as planned or that any vaccine was available on site.

Flu vaccination was the confirmed overlap

The Health Department's September 10 announcement and the County's September 23 event listing both advertised flu vaccination. The County said flu vaccine would be available from age 6 months and that a high-dose version would be offered to people 65 and older.

The County said vaccination would be free for people who were uninsured or underinsured and asked people with Medicare, Medicaid or private insurance to bring their insurance card. The records did not say whether an insured person could face cost-sharing.

The County's other vaccine listings do not match

The County homepage and event listing called the stop a “Flu & Measles (MMR) Clinic.” But the Health Department's September 10 countywide announcement listed flu plus limited quantities of RSV and pneumonia vaccine for the RCC stop—and did not list MMR there.

Those records cannot responsibly be combined into a four-vaccine menu. They confirmed only flu in common. The Rockland Edit did not independently confirm whether MMR, RSV or pneumonia vaccine was available, how much supply existed or who qualified.

Verify a new date before making another trip

For another vaccination opportunity, use the County's current clinics and immunizations page ↗ or call the Health Department at 845-364-2534. Confirm the date, location, vaccine menu, eligibility and any accommodation need before traveling.

For personal questions about which vaccine you need or when to receive it, speak with a healthcare provider.

What changes for a resident: the September 23 RCC clinic window has ended; verify a new date and vaccine menu with the County before making another trip.

Primary sources: Rockland County Department of Health clinic announcement ↗, posted September 10, 2026, at 2:47 p.m.; Rockland County's September 23 RCC clinic record ↗; the County homepage event listing ↗; and the County's current clinics and immunizations page ↗. At 7:56 p.m. EDT September 23, the posted window had passed. The direct event and announcement pages denied fresh access, while the County homepage still showed the elapsed calendar entry. No extension or outcome was found. This archive preserves the unresolved vaccine-menu conflict and does not claim that the clinic occurred, identify onsite inventory or determine individual eligibility.
