Program Overview
One of the most important functions of a pharmacy is to be sure its patients fully understand their prescription directions to increase the likelihood that they will follow them and to decrease the instance of misuse or overdose.  This is a tall enough order with English speaker.  When we consider that even those spanish speakers who understand some English may not be able to read it, this task becomes daunting to those pharmacy professionals who don't have a working knowledge of Spanish.  "Label Me Spanish" is a sequel to "An Introduction to Pharmacy Spanish".  This program will focus on putting together directions for medication use in Spanish.
