Reading hospital offering pharmacy delivery statewide
Stacy Wescoe//February 3, 2025//
The pharmacy at Reading Hospital has expanded its home delivery service, with a goal to make receiving medications even easier and more convenient for patients.
According to a press release, Reading Hospital and Tower Health patients can request their medication home deliveries directly through the MyTowerHealth app and then have orders and refills delivered to any home in the state of Pennsylvania.
The hospital’s home delivery service was previously only available within a 30-mile radius of West Reading.
“At Tower Health, we want to simplify the process for medication access, and our expanded home delivery service allows us to take one more thing off a patient’s to-do list,” said Stephanie Goldman, vice president of pharmacy operations at Tower Health. “I am proud of how our pharmacy team consistently raises the bar by providing excellent patient care and customer service.”
She said the service will also help patients who face challenges in picking up their medications from retail pharmacies because of health issues, childcare limitations, or work schedules.
Payment for the ordered medications must be completed through the MyTowerHealth app for home delivery. However, the home delivery option is a free service provided by the pharmacy team. Delivery times will range from same day to five days, depending on medication availability and delivery location.
“Home medication delivery is a direct result of Stephanie and the pharmacy team listening to patients and prioritizing their feedback,” said Michael Stern, COO and president of Tower Health. “I am proud of how hard they all worked to launch this expanded service, and I know they will continue to provide exceptional care that exceeds expectations.
