A new Medical Benefits pharmacy will open at the Glanvilles Polyclinic on March 10, as part of efforts to expand healthcare services for residents in the eastern communities.
The development was announced during the latest Cabinet briefing, where officials said the facility will provide residents with easier access to prescription medications under the Medical Benefits Scheme.
Director General of Communications Maurice Merchant said the pharmacy will become fully operational next week.
“At the Glanvilles Polyclinic, the pharmacy there will have a fully functional pharmacy there… from the 10th of March,” Merchant said during the Cabinet briefing.
Officials said the expansion of services at the polyclinic will continue later in the month with the addition of an emergency response vehicle.
Merchant said an ambulance will also be stationed at the facility to strengthen emergency medical services for the surrounding communities.
“A couple of weeks or probably at the end of March, an ambulance will be stationed there at the polyclinic,” he said.
The move forms part of ongoing efforts by the Ministry of Health to improve access to healthcare services and emergency response capacity outside of St. John’s.
Authorities said the new pharmacy and ambulance services are expected to improve healthcare delivery for residents living in Glanvilles and nearby communities in Antigua’s northeast.

And if the people lose the care of their brain and vote ABLP, it will close on the 17th of March
That alone should be enough for the electorates to kick Randy Baltimore to the dump. These people are so calculated, deliberate, disrespectful and wicked. While Mr. Robin Yearwood was busy gobbling up and flipping their lands, Mr. Baltimore was quite comfortable and couldn’t care less if nothing of importance was done to benefit the people but he’s now making grandiose promises to get their votes, in the hopes of continuing the legacy of Mr. Yearwood. This exercise will define the people of St. Philips North.
Oh boy? Alex just say that and it is quickly enacted by Gaston ALP, they said a willikies villager had a confrontation with Gaston and randy about the land at Frenches cove bay lands and randy pretended he didn’t know all the lands were taken by robin for himself, Gaston came up with the defensive idea that they are Hadeed lands, there is this villager that have been advocating for a fisheries and main road to come through that area and big pasture now called emerald cove to accomodate container trucks so randy immediately plagiarized the idea saying he though about fisheries complex, when both randy and Gaston know the lands were not available for such, I guess that all is required is for randy to have aspirations just hold the seat for Gaston.
They say wise men come from the east but to see infrastructural changes are only happening now after 50 years means east people fooley ah r$$$
