Johnson\u2019s Point Pharmacy Undergoes Renovations<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

St. John\u2019s, Antigua, and Barbuda \u2013 (March 7, 2023) Dispensing services at the Medical Benefits Scheme (MBS) Johnson\u2019s Point pharmacy is suspended with immediate effect to commence renovations and repairs of the facility.<\/p>\n

This decision follows discussions between the MBS Executives and the Honourable Minister of Health, Sir Molwyn Joseph.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Beneficiaries who rely on the Johnson\u2019s Point pharmacy services are encouraged to utilize MBS pharmacies located at All Saints, Browne\u2019s Avenue, Clare Hall, Gray\u2019s Farm, or on Nevis Street.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

These locations are fully equipped to provide a combination of walk-in (same day) and prescription drop-off and medication pick-up services except Gray\u2019s Farm, which offers same-day only.<\/p>\n

MBS is also exploring alternative arrangements to ensure that beneficiary needs in the Johnson\u2019s Point area are better met.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The public is advised to stay tuned to the media for updates on the progress of the alternative arrangements.<\/p>\n

The government is committed to providing a safe and modern healthcare environment to all its residents.<\/p>
