Happy Halloween Weekend from the OctariusRx team! Halloween can be a scary time of year. Last year we focused on the tricks (the top five scariest things about Halloween). This year, we are focusing on the treats (the least scary things about Halloween). Can you guess what’s on the list?
Top Five Least Scary Things at Halloween:
- Candy
- Babies and dogs in costume
- Carving pumpkins
- Safe medications management
- Survey preparation
Why they’re not scary:
- Candy is never scary unless you eat too much, or if it’s candy corn, or both.
- Have you ever seen a baby, or a dog dressed as a bumble bee? What’s not to love? There’s nothing scary about that!
- Carving pumpkins is not only tradition, but it’s also a lot of fun. Of course, you can choose to make a scary design, if that’s your thing.
- There is nothing scary about medication management and survey preparation when you know what you’re doing. Ensure you have a competent team that includes an expert pharmacy consultant. Not working with a specialized pharmacist is the same as not working with a pharmacist at all! And that is SCARY for your patients!
We wish you a safe and sweet weekend. If you have concerns about patient safety and regulatory compliance, or if you have extra candy, please contact us as soon as possible. Happy Halloween!
