#PremiseCares: Premise pharmacist uses virtual visits to help member with smoking cessation

Premise Health pharmacist, Judy Fakhouri, knows how important staying connected to her members during COVID-19 is. While conducting a wellness check-up, one member informed Judy that she was interested in learning more about smoking cessation. After having a consultation and asking questions about her lifestyle habits, Judy was able to connect the patient with her on-site provider to learn if prescription medications for smoking cessation would be right for her.

After several follow up calls with the patient, the member let Judy know that she thought their call was “meant to be” and was the perfect kick start to her smoking cessation journey. Judy was able to mail all of the prescriptions to the members’ home so that she could jump right in to the process. Thank you, Judy, for helping our members make positive steps towards their overall wellbeing.
