Newport Hospital offers free lecture on understanding medications

NEWPORT – Newport Hospital is hosting a free community lecture on understanding and managing medications, a challenging problem for many in the modern era. The lecture will take place in the hospital’s Gudoian Conference Room from 6:30-7:30 p.m. on Dec. 15.

Paul Parchesky, manager of pharmacy operations at Newport Hospital, will be giving the lecture.

“It’s so important to have a clear understanding of your own health and how to take the medications prescribed for you,” Parchesky recently said. “By keeping an open line of communication with your physician and keeping track of your medications and medication schedule, you can play a direct role in staying healthy by minimizing drug interactions or negative side effects – and you may even realize cost savings in the process.”
