Today, Yale New Haven Health and Yale Medicine introduced the first mobile retail pharmacy and clinic in Connecticut to bring health care to people where they live. This project, known as InMOTION, serves communities throughout Connecticut, which is the first state in the country to legalize mobile retail pharmacy services. The mobile health unit provides access to underserved communities and strives to support our patient’s medication needs through financial navigation, grants, manufacturer support and a through partnership with the ‘Dispensary of Hope’. Patients can be seen by a clinician, have blood drawn if needed, and receive their prescriptions all in one visit in an environment that is private and non-stigmatizing. In addition, they can get connect with other social services like transportation, housing and employment. Media and guests had an opportunity to tour the van which has been delivering health care in three communities in Connecticut: Waterbury, Norwich and now New Haven. Speakers included: Sandra Springer, MD, Professor of Medicine, Yale School of Medicine; Commissioner Brian Caffarelli, CT Consumer Protection; Vinay Sawant RPh, MPH, MBA, Executive Director Pharmacy Services, Specialty Retail and Home Infusion, YNHHS; Jillian Corbin, Executive Director, Saint Vincent de Paul Place; Senator James Maroney, Deputy Majority Leader, representing Milford, Orange, West Haven and Woodbridge; Heather Goodwin, clinical pharmacy specialist.

For years, Jeff treated his persistent heartburn and indigestion with a combination of antacids and denial. When he finally did see a doctor, he learned that gastroesophageal reflux disease, also known as GERD, can progress to a condition called Barrett’s esophagus. While a diagnosis of Barrett's esophagus is not a cause for major alarm, the condition can increase the risk of developing esophageal cancer. Learn about the risk factors, symptoms and treatments for Barrett’s esophagus: https://lnkd.in/eKPufB_3.
