Sweet Home Police Offer Prescription Delivery to Vulnerable 65+
SWEET HOME, Ore. March 25, 2020 — To assist Sweet Home's more vulnerable population, and in support of Governor Kate Brown's most recent Executive Order regarding social distancing, the Sweet Home Police Department will begin offering a prescription pick-up and delivery service.
Chief Jeff Lynn stated, "Our department was inspired by the Forest Grove Police Department, who started this program this week. We brought the idea to the attention of our city's leadership, who fully supported the plan."
Effective March 25, 2020, the Sweet Home Police Department will pick-up and deliver life-preserving prescription medication to private residences within Sweet Home city limits from either the Bi-Mart, Economy Drugs, or Safeway pharmacies. This program will be valid during the governor's executive order, currently set to expire on April 28, 2020.
Program participation is available to anyone 65 years old or older, have a life-threatening pre-existing medical condition, and lives within city limits.
If you meet the above criteria, contact the Sweet Home Police Department between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday at 541-367-5181. A participating resident will need to provide the following:
- Name
- Address
- Phone Number
- Date of Birth
- Requested Prescription
- Pharmacy Name
Further, the resident must complete the following before contacting the Police Department:
- Contact the pharmacy and order the prescription.
- Pre-pay for medicine over the phone.
- Advise the pharmacy the Sweet Home Police Department will be picking up the prescription.
- Have a valid identification available when the officer arrives at your residence.
Staff making the deliveries will always be in approved Sweet Home Police Department attire with identification, personal protective equipment, and will maintain social distancing.
The Sweet Home Police Department wants their fellow community members to know we are here throughout this crisis. We are committed to providing the best service we can.
