SEPT 10 MEDIA RELEASE__Rainfall totals across the county were disappointingly low in the month of August.

Crops are drying down rapidly in some areas of the county which means harvesting equipment will be seen on the roads. Please remember to be patient on roadways and remember to share the road so everyone can return home safely to their families.

AUG 13 MEDIA RELEASE — Traveling abroad? ONU HealthWise Pharmacy can help individuals prepare for a safe and healthy journey with travel vaccine consultations.

By calling ahead–the earlier, the better–the pharmacy team can begin by checking if recommended vaccines are in stock.

During your scheduled consultation, our pharmacists will discuss the details of your travel plans–including destination, departure date and planned activities–to assess which vaccines are necessary for a specific trip. Because many travel vaccines are not part of routine immunizations, insurance coverage may vary.
