Long before things like Google, WebMD, and Facebook found themselves at the top of our list of trusted partners for medical information, communities like ours counted on local doctors and pharmacists to provide quality and accurate healthcare guidance.

Thankfully, Spencer Hodges, Corporate Pharmacy Manager at Boone Drug, Inc, is kind enough to visit with us each quarter to help educate us on prevalent topics related to health and wellness. This week's episode of Mind Your Business features some helpful information about COVID-19 treatments and new vaccines, and which one may be right for you. We also discuss some best practices to keep your entire family healthy as kids return to school.

Boone Drug is also one of the largest private employers in our area, and many of the services they provide can be offered as helpful benefits to other businesses that seek to prioritize workplace wellness and talent retainment. We'll discuss some of these opportunities, and how the local pharmacy can provide valuable resources to your business.

Mind Your Business is produced weekly by the Boone Area Chamber of Commerce, and can be heard each Thursday at 10:05AM on WATA (96.5FM/1450AM).
