Getting Your Medications Should be as Easy as Buying a Cup of Coffee

By

If getting your medications is not as easy as getting a cup of coffee, it should be! Check out the short video below to see what we mean.

This video is from The Community of Oncology Alliance. They are working to shed light on the dangers of Pharmacy Benefit Managers. Getting your medications, like coffee, should be simple and should not involve a harmful expensive pharmacy benefit manager. So what does all this mean? Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs) are the middlemen that come between patients and their doctors, causing unnecessary suffering by delaying, denying, or obstructing care. Learn more at PBMAbuses.org.

About Maple View Farm

In January 2001, Maple View Ice Cream opened its doors on New Year’s Day. To this day, those doors remain open! The idea for making delicious homemade ice cream came from Robert Nutter, the founder of Maple View Farm, and his daughter, Muffin Nutter Brosig. With the success of bottling fresh Maple View Farm milk, Muffin and her father decided that the community would appreciate and enjoy fresh local ice cream. After going to ice cream school at Penn State, their dream became a reality. Muffin and her father believed that premium ice cream must be hand-crafted in smaller batches and made with the freshest cream and highest quality ingredients available. They decided to use as many local ingredients as possible, local berries, North Carolina pecans, Orange County honey and cream from the cows grazing in the pastures of Maple View Farm. Their delicious Maple View Ice Cream is a true “cow to cone” treat. Learn more at MapleViewFarm.com.

Mission Trip Fundraiser

By

Han Su’s wife Kristy Su (Nurse Practitioner at Carolina Convenient Care) and their daughter, Abigail Su, are raising money to go on a mission trip this summer to Costa Rica. They will be working in the community and helping children and families in need with their church, Cornerstone Presbyterian.

One of the things they are doing to raise money is selling unique bracelets that were made in the Philippines. The bracelets are two dollars a piece. One dollar will go directly to their mission trip and the other dollar will go to help children in the Philippines.

If you would like to purchase one or a few, stop by Carolina Convenient Care or 501 Pharmacy. If you would just like to partner and support them without buying a bracelet, that is completely welcome, too.

Thank you, for your time and support!
