Pharmacies have a critical role to play to ensure the safety of blind, visually impaired, and elderly customers.
Best practices are a collaborative effort
The U.S. Access Board’s (http://www.access-board.gov) 18-member working group with representation of national disability organizations and industry groups representing retail, mail order, and independent community pharmacies, released best practices for how pharmacies can make their prescription drug labels accessible for blind, visually-impaired, or elderly customers.
This brochure contains a summary of delivery methods and best practices, and a link to the full report for more information.
