CARMI – CVS Health has announced that the CVS Pharmacy on West Main in Carmi will close Sept. 3.
CVS Health spokesperson Kara Page says all prescriptions will be moved to the CVS location on West Main in Fairfield to ensure patients have uninterrupted access to pharmacy care.
Maintaining access to pharmacy services in the communities CVS serves is an important factor the company considers when making store closure decisions according to Page. Other factors include local market dynamics, population shifts, a community’s store density, and ensuring there are other geographic access points to meet the needs of the community.
Page says patients can always choose to fill their prescriptions at any CVS Pharmacy, or the pharmacy of their choice, if another is more convenient. Employees are being offered comparable roles within the company.
Page says they will continue to provide the community with outstanding service at the Fairfield location. CVS also offers several delivery options for customers and patients with eligible prescriptions, including 1 to 2-day delivery and on-demand (same-day) delivery (within three hours), through CVS.com and the CVS Pharmacy app to provide additional convenient access to household essentials, health and wellness products, and prescription medications.
