When I go to work, I feel like I catch myself playing with the medical ABC's. Asthma. Bronchitis. CHF. COPD. Diabetes. Ejection Fraction 5%. Fibromyalgia. GBS. Hypertension. I sit there as I write a laundry list of disorders and diseases for a single person’s medical history and wonder how it's possible that our bodies are capable of going through all this. In amazement, I'm reminded over and over again of how important our body is and how crucial it is for us to take care of it, how things can go wrong quickly, and how the decisions we make have on the outcome of our health.

Working in the medical field has truly opened up my eyes. Sometimes I think that in today's age that the old tend to be healthier than the young. Often times it's non-compliance that gets the young ones in trouble. They feel fine. They look fine. So why should they follow a strict plan written out by the doctor or take medications as prescribed? Little do they know what is going on internally that may cause devastating long-term effects.

When it's time for our patients to leave us and get back on their feet, it's important for us to educate them on not only taking their medications, but understanding what they are, how they work, and the significant side effects to look out for. I do the same with my own family, friends, and neighbors. I guess that's the nurse in me: worrying about those that I care about, and understanding at the same time how bad things can get when we don't take care of our bodies appropriately. 

That's where Target Pharmacy comes into the picture.

Filling your scripts at your local Target pharmacy has quite a few perks that many people may not know about. By switching to Target, and filling 5 scripts, you can save 5% off your total order.  Flipping our script was one of the best decisions we ever made for my husband who takes cholesterol medicine. Also, if you like the option of shopping while you wait for your prescriptions, you can sign up for the text alerts and will be notified as soon as it is ready. There are generics for $4, and to top it off, J.D. Power ranked Target Pharmacy, “Highest in customer satisfaction among mass merchandiser pharmacies.” 

Have medications that you fill monthly? Know someone that does? Be sure to tell them about Flip the script, program and all the great perks that come along with it. Anytime I am able to save money while shopping at Target is an automatic win-win for me.

Another motivator to make the switch is one lucky winner will have the opportunity to win a $50 Target gift card. You simply have to answer one question to enter, and there are also some bonus entries that go along with the rafflecopter below.
