Decrease usage of plastic bags for the dispensation of medications
I suggest to review the usage of plastic bags while dispensing medications to patients . Several ideas below :
- for patients who come to refill their treatment : use reusable containers for medications instead of plastic bags for medication (better to prevent humidity and light exposure, and can be refilled every month, if not damaged)
-where patients have their own bag (real one or piece of fabric used as bag) : put their medication inside instead of using a plastic bag for them to carry it
