🩵 On February 21st, our APhA-ASP and HPSA team had the privilege of participating in DHR Health’s 16th Annual Community Health Fair, a collaboration led by Operación Farmacia.

Altogether, we educated, screened, and vaccinated 267 patients — 113 more than last year’s fair. We are incredibly proud of our growth and grateful to the DHR Health pharmacy team for facilitating this opportunity to support the RGV community. Until next year!
