CHP does not provide Covid-19 vaccinations at our practice locations. We have partnered with Berkshire Health Systems and the area Boards of Health Association to form the Berkshire Vaccine Collaborative to distribute the vaccine across the County at multiple vaccination sites in the county. This effort is focused on systematic and equitable vaccination, following the guidelines set by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Please note: This collaborative vaccine registration tool does not include vaccination registration options at various pharmacy locations throughout the county.
