Debby sought to address the delayed access to prescription medications for patients at a local FQHC. Due to transportation barriers, the clinic desires to have an on-site dispensary. Debby will conduct patient interviews to assess needs, will review charts to create a dispensary formulary and budget, and will initiate the legal approvals through two boards.
