Publix to open retail pharmacy in Halifax Health Medical Center

Jan. 28, 2020

Today, we broke ground on a full-service Publix Pharmacy at Halifax Health Medical Center in Daytona Beach, Florida. The pharmacy will provide prescription and over-the-counter medications for patients, visitors and employees of Halifax Health and is expected to open this August. 

“As patients are discharged from the hospital, they are often prescribed medications to continue their care. Through our collaboration with Halifax Health, we’re able to bring the convenience of bedside delivery to the medical center’s patients and eliminate an extra stop on their way home,” said Vice President of Pharmacy Dain Rusk. “We also look forward to providing premier service to Halifax Health employees as we become their exclusive in-network pharmacy.”

Patients at Halifax Health Medical Center not only benefit from the convenience of having new prescriptions delivered to their room upon discharge, they can also refill those prescriptions at their neighborhood Publix Pharmacy. There are 26 Publix Pharmacies in the communities served by Halifax Health.

Publix Pharmacy currently operates 12 in-hospital pharmacies in the state of Florida. We continue to look for collaboration opportunities throughout our operating area.
