Mary Anne Oglesby-Sutherly and her sidekick-producer Sue Duffield, take this episode down a memory lane right from the start. The one thing that stands out the most is not only their reminiscent ways reliving the corner drug store experience, but also the difficulty of navigating the larger box store pharmacies, especially for the elderly.
With an average of 11,000 people turning 65-years-old every single day, understanding and meeting the diversified needs of a new generation of older adults has never been more important, especially with medication and pharmacies. The desire for specialty pharmacies plays a critical role engaging with these older patients, but only if they are able to completely understand this generation’s needs, changing their preconceived notions about aging, and delivering services that are designed to meet them where they are.
Bottom line: We need a community-driven, caring experience for all those in the aging population, especially when it comes to medication. As Mary Anne says, "We're making it too hard to be kind."
