The Coffee with a Pharmacist event, hosted by the Springfield Department of Elder Affairs in partnership with Vital Care of Springfield, invites community members to enjoy a relaxed conversation while learning important information about medications, side effects, and the safe disposal of unused prescriptions. Taking place on Wednesday, August 19, 2026, at 11:45 AM, this educational session encourages participants to ask questions and receive expert guidance from a pharmacist. With limited spaces available and required registration through the Welcome Center or by calling 413‑787‑6785, the program supports health awareness, medication safety, and community engagement for older adults.
