Hello Volunteer Ambassadors, October is BeMedWise's 35th annual Talk About Your Medicines Month. This year's theme is Medication Adherence - On track with your meds and your health. Please read the below suggestions on how to spread the word about this important topic:

Check out some ideas for outreach efforts for observing Talk About Your Medicines Month.

If you're active on social media, use the toolkit - that has graphics and language - to share information about medication adherence.

There is a long list of medication adherence downloadable documents - to be printed or shared electronically - with patients, providers and caregivers.

Make sure people know Health Storylines - the free app - can act as a medication reminder to keep users on track with their meds.

Most importantly, as you reach out with tools to help people adhere to their medication schedules, make sure you are taking care of yourself. As always, reach out to me directly with any feedback you would like to share. Regards, Carla Dellaporta Director of Education & Partnerships carla@needymeds.org; 978.281.6666
