The public is advised that the Barbados Drug Service (BDS) is piloting a new Pharmacy Management System at the David Thompson Health and Social Services Complex, Glebe Land, St. John, this month.

As a result, persons are likely to experience a temporary increase in wait times for pharmaceutical services over the next three weeks.  When fully implemented, the new system is expected to result in an improvement in patient records management, treatment, and pharmaceutical health care and safety.            

Management of the BDS regrets any inconvenience this temporary disruption may cause and encourages members of the public to arrange their business accordingly.
