Good Monday afternoon! You may be receiving more calls from Island Prescription Center and we feel that this is a good thing. We have new software that monitors the prescriptions we fill for you and gives you reminder calls for various reasons. For example, when you have an order waiting to be picked up or when you are overdue for a prescription (your medications work their best if they are taken properly, so we want to help you continue to do that). Another example is a few days after you have started an antibiotic (we want to make sure you take it until it is gone even if you are already feeling better, and if you aren’t feeling better we want to help you with that as well). Having the software make the phone calls for us is not meant to be less personal, rather it frees up our pharmacist and staff so that they have more time to spend with you, one on one, to attend to your specific needs. This is just another way of how Island Prescription Center continues to move forward to provide excellent health care for our patients and the Grand Island community.
