DOSE OF HOPE
The NOVA ScriptsCentral team is honored and grateful to have the opportunity to provide a "Dose of Hope" to the community.
From a volunteer
“I was unable to find a job as a pharmacist but I also wanted to play an active role by providing clinical services to support the community and I found Nova ScriptsCentral Pharmacy. I got to learn a lot and met wonderful people. That was pretty amazing experience as in this pharmacy everyone is supportive of each other.” ~ Volunteer
From a patient
“NOVA ScriptsCentral is by far one of the most involved nonprofits I have ever came across. Every member of their team genuinely care about their patients, they do their best to teach our community. I am excited to see more of them and to see them expand their services to many more low-profit families in Northern Virginia.” ~ Patient
From a Field Professional
“This wonderful NGO provides our pediatric clinic, in which 10% of our patients are uninsured, much needed access to prescriptions, that without NovaScripts, most of our families would be unable to afford. This assistance can be basic like simple asthma medications, which asthmatic patients need to control their asthma and prevent flare ups and hospitalizations. It can also be more complicated like seizures medications for special needs patients to help control their seizures. The ability to provide prescriptions to help manage chronic conditions is invaluable and Novascripts lets me as a pediatrician provide better quality of care for my patients, which they deserve, regardless of insurance status.” ~ Field PRofessional
FCPS Mental Health Wellness Conference Attendee
“The presentation in “Educate Before You Medicate” offered at the 2018 FCPS Mental Health And Wellness Conference was extremely informative and enlightening. I always ask myself why medicine label instructions tell you to specifically use the measuring device that comes with the medicine. In this session I learned how important it is to use that measuring device as well as the repercussions of doing otherwise. I hope to see more presentations like this in the near future. I would definitely like to attend and recommend them.” ~Lynnette Morales
From a Pharmacist
“NoVA ScriptsCentral provides great care for those low-income uninsured patients throughout the Northern Virginia community. I had a pleasure of having one of my pharmacy rotations at this company and it gave me a lot of insight of how much more pharmacists can play a role in facilitating better care in the community.” ~ Lams3

"Interning at NOVAScripts was one of the best decisions I have made. During my time there, I was able to attend public health seminars as well as meet many people who aided and directed me in the field. I met the great staff at NOVAScripts and also learned to create items that would be informative to people representing different communities that made sense for all. If time permitted, I would go back to NOVAScripts to volunteer more often."
