    Does anyone have a pharmacy/pre-package medication service that you would recommend based on your own camp’s experience? Updating some policies and looking for a reliable, user-friendly service.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Astrid,
    We use a pharmacy that prepackages our medications. They use the card (bubble pack) method. We’ve had two pharmacies since I’ve been working at the camp and this one is excellent. They deliver meds whenever we need them, and if a camper is on an OTC, if the camp can’t get the exact brand and strength the camper takes, the parent, with the provider’s order, sends an unopened bottle to the pharmacy and they prepackage it. We also get the remainder of the bottle to give back to the parent at the end of the camper’s time at camp.

    Hi Shelley,
    Do you mind sharing which pharmacy you work with? Thanks!

    We use campmeds.
    They have been in the business for a long time and were started by a camp nurse.
    First year with a new camp, there are some bumps but they handled everything really well.
    CVS also prepackages meds.
