Memorial Medical Clinic Colchester is pleased to partner with Wear Drug to unveil the region’s first Remote Automated Pharmacy, revolutionizing how members of the Colchester community and surrounding areas can access and receive their medications conveniently and efficiently.
The Remote Automated Pharmacy is inside Memorial Medical Clinic Colchester, located at 110 Market Street. This groundbreaking addition will provide community members with a seamless and secure process for refilling their prescriptions.
The Remote Automated Pharmacy works by individuals making a call to Wear Drug in Carthage to refill their prescriptions. Refills will automatically be sent to the Remote Automated Pharmacy for individuals living in Colchester and the surrounding community. Once the prescriptions are loaded into the Remote Automated Pharmacy, individuals will receive a text message and an email containing a code necessary to open the Remote Automated Pharmacy. To ensure security and accuracy, the Remote Automated Pharmacy requires individuals to enter the code from their email or text message, their date of birth, take a photo using the kiosk, and sign a signature before accessing their medications. Payment terms are handled beforehand for convenience, eliminating individuals having to use payment when picking up their prescriptions. In instances where an individual has questions or needs assistance, a phone is attached to the Remote Automated Pharmacy that will directly connect to a pharmacist at Wear Drug in Carthage.
The Remote Automated Pharmacy operates during Wear Drug business hours: Mondays from 9 AM – 7 PM, Tuesday-Friday 9 AM – 6 PM, and Saturdays from 9 AM – 2 PM. Individuals do not need to enter through Memorial Medical Clinic Colchester to access the machine as there is a dedicated entrance just to the east of the clinic’s main entrance for easy access.
Memorial Medical Clinic Colchester is proud to partner with Wear Drug to pioneer this innovative solution, reaffirming its commitment to providing exceptional healthcare services by prioritizing convenience, safety, and patient satisfaction. For questions, individuals may contact Wear Drug in Carthage at 217-357-9327.
