Adrian MN looks at telepharmacy options

The Worthington Daily Globe recently reported that the Nobles County Commissioners appear to be looking favorably on plans for a pharmacy that would allow a pharmacist to provide adequate consultation to clientele via video and teleconferencing equipment. Plans are to have a pharmacy technician on staff at the Adrian location.

The project has already been approved for a $50,000 Light Speed grant from the Blandin Foundation, and it was approved for a $25,000 loan from the Worthington Regional Economic Development Corp. They are looking for funding from the County Commissioners to help reach the estimated $100,000 budget.

The Commissioners voiced support for the telepharmacy and directed the county administrator to work with the WREDC and the City of Adrian to finalize the funding plan.
