Pittsburgh is one of the safest cities of its size, large enough to offer plenty of activities but small enough to easily get around. Pittsburgh is a football town. Pittsburgh is home to a wealth of, wealth. With entrepreneurs like Andrew Carnegie, the Heinz family and Henry Clay Frick who have called it home, the city is filled with fantastic educational and cultural institutions. Pittsburgh is a good sports town, and with the Pirates playing their games during the summer months, the Steelers during the fall, the Penguins are the only game in town during the winter.
Pharmacies are frequently the primary access point for healthcare services and supplies, especially for Latinos. As the number of Latino pharmacy clients continues to rise, and nine million Latinos in this country are of reproductive age, a significant opportunity exists to promote sexual health services and products in the pharmacy. Pharmacies are regulated by states, and must be licensed by the states they are in. They also nearly always must be licensed in other states to which they ship medicines. Pharmacies are an ideal access option for emergency contraception. Pharmacists are therefore well placed to perform a role in informing clients and promoting appropriate drug use.
