CVMC's Community Links | From First Dose to Last: Ensuring Medication Safety Every Step of the Way

Coosa Valley Medical Center is excited to invite you to the next Community Links, held on Monday, April 14th, 2025, at B.B. Comer Memorial Library. We will serve lunch at 11 AM, and the presentation will begin promptly at 12 PM. Medication safety is critical to achieving the best health outcomes while minimizing risks. From the first prescribed dose to the decision to stop, every step requires careful attention to proper use, potential interactions, and adherence to medical guidance. As part of our ongoing commitment to safe medication practices, Coosa Valley Apothecary now offers a secure Medication Disposal Bin. This new resource provides a safe, convenient way to dispose of unused or expired medications — a crucial step in combating the opioid epidemic that continues to impact communities nationwide.
