My Vaccine Pass – Libraries and other community organisations to the rescue!

We have had numerous reports this week from our Stepping UP partners about how they have sprung into action to help their communities download their vaccine passes. Some are providing a printing service, creating a laminated copy of the Pass. Others are helping customers with smartphones navigate the maze of apps to ensure the Pass can be swiftly recovered when it is needed to verify their vaccination status to gain access to a hairdresser or restaurant.

We (mainly Sue Kini) have also swung into action and produced a new Stepping UP Digital Step – DS41: My Health & My Vaccine Pass. This provides a step by step guide for partners to guide your customers in creating a My Health account and downloading their Vaccine Passes.

As shout out to Irene Wilson at Dunedin Public Library, who has produced an amazing set of video tutorials for getting a Vaccine Pass. Irene has created six videos in total and is happy for this resource to be shared with anyone who needs it.
