Today, in our 5th segment of this series, we're going to take a look at the extra and enhanced services, that are typically only available at your local independent pharmacy.

Most national pharmacy chains only offer the same basic services you expect. However, your independent neighborhood pharmacy is likely to offer a lot more conveniences than you may realize. So let's look into some of those services...

Local pharmacies offer convenience services such as same-day delivery right to your home. Many also offer customized medication services like medication management, prescription compounding and medication synchronization.

Some also offer customized weight loss programs, dietary consultations and smoking cessation, nutritional counseling, as well as durable medical equipment and at-home COVID tests paid for by your insurance, including Medicare.

Your local, independent pharmacy places a much greater emphasis on the well-being of the patient than just treating individual issues and making sales. Their clinical support can truly improve the health and well-being of the entire community.

Today we'll talk about reliability and personal connections.

Reliability is a key factor in choosing a pharmacy. A pharmacy must be reliable and techs and pharmacists must be available at all times, because you cannot make mistakes with medication or pharmaceuticals. Daily tasks must be performed correctly.

Smaller pharmacies don't have to face the same challenges as larger chains. This is especially true in recent years, when COVID-19 related issues such as staff shortages and staff overwork have made it more difficult for smaller pharmacies.

Independent pharmacies have a greater ability to keep their staff small and ensure their employees are knowledgeable and reliable, and they're notorious for viewing customer health as their most important job responsibility.

In smaller pharmacies the techs fill prescriptions and provide vaccinations. However, they also aim to make personal connections with their patients instead of treating them like just another business transaction.
