[Colorado-Talk] Accessible prescription flyer

[Peggy Chong]

Hello to all.

 

Tonight, we held a Mountain Time At 5 regarding the new law that requires
pharmacies to provide accessible prescription labels to those who ask.  We
had lots of suggestions and advice on how to proceed.  Pal Sandoval noted
that the flyer, see attached, may be in Spanish soon. This is great as the
ScripTalk option also translates prescription information into several
languages.  That means that not only the blind and deaf-blind benefit, but
those with language barriers as well.

 

Please grab the attached flyer and save it so you can email it to your
doctors, senior groups, pharmacist, and any others who might be interested.
You can print several copies to use at a meet and greet event for your
chapter to educate the public about the law and what patients can ask for to
receive an accessible label.  

 

It is up to us to promote the law and educate the vast majority of the
public that an accessible prescription label is even possible.  If we don't
know, we won't ask.  So, lets get out there and educate the public and the
doctors and the pharmacist.

 

Some of you will note that this flyer does not include QR codes.  The QR
codes expire in a month. The links to the videos that explain the program
are still there.
