“During the Covid-19 crisis, our staff has worked very hard to keep one another safe. As a team, we are protecting one another so that we are healthy and able to come into the pharmacy and prepare your medications. While we do miss our patients, we have felt that our closed door/curbside pick-up policy was necessary to protect the integrity of the medications we prepare.
We had fun with our “sippy PPE”. During this season of Easter/Passover, we wanted to have us all raise a glass in celebration of life and to a future of getting back to normal!!! Please note, we included one of our home-workers on Ben’s cell phone !!!
To all, please stay well !!!“
