Glasgow Pharmacy Talks to ABC 13 About Frontline Work Through the Pandemic

August 25, 2021

The PharMerica team in Glasgow, Kentucky, was interviewed by ABC 13 WBKO for Health Care Hero Appreciation Week, a celebration of those who have worked round-the-clock to treat patients during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Throughout the past eighteen months, the PharMerica location in Glasgow, has provided care to long-term care residents with medication deliveries and has administered COVID vaccines. Will Andersen, Pharmacy Director at PharMerica, recalls the moment when he and his staff had the opportunity to administer the COVID-19 vaccine for the first time.

鈥淚t was, you know, sort of monumental to be able to be a part of that vaccine rollout, and to help the elders get that vaccine which dramatically reduced the COVID in the nursing facilities that were hit so hard last year,鈥 said Andersen.
