My Nonprofit Reviews

Nova Scripts Central (NSC) entire workforce plays a pivotal role in addressing issues emerging from the nexus of escalating health care cost and health inequity by pragmatically increasing the role and involvement of a pharmacist in developing health education policies and programs that address the needs of disenfranchised/uninsured population they choose to serve. Nova Scripts Central leadership and team provides a platform for volunteers and also equip graduate interns like me to acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively disseminate relevant public health knowledge, to create awareness about healthy-living, to develop disease prevention and immunization programs that cater to all ages in the communities it chooses to serve.
A case in the type of my involvement as a Pharmacist and Graduate Intern is the PAVE (Providing Access to Vaccine for Everyone) initiative. I am proud to be a part of the initiative that boasts of continued success in closing the immunization gap for school-age children by providing access to vaccine via a centralized & partnership-based immunization program. The initiative or centralized immunization program is designed to eliminate barriers in enrolling children promptly, by providing access to vaccines needed for school entrance to the uninsured population in Virginia. The initiative recognizes that timely enrollment into school systems provides the much needed educational support to students and their families and also recognizes that poor academic outcomes are often linked to poor health status.
On the overall, NSC epitomizes an organization that is favorably positioned to provide solutions to the escalating and unproductive health care burden on the economy and offers a broader horizon in alleviating health inequalities because of the varying resources and their involvement in various structural and social conditions needed for good health.

Thanks NSC!
