Please join us in celebrating Mirella Torres, Case Manager, Medical Assistant, and Translator at Arkansas Verdigris Valley Heath in Porter, OK. Mirella is Equiscript's Site Champion Spotlight for July!
Site Champions play a significant role in the success of Equiscript home delivery pharmacy programs across the country. They serve as the primary point of contact between the Equiscript team, providers, and patients. Site Champions are super-organized, super-involved superstars who carry out the tasks necessary to make a successful pharmacy program.
Arkansas Verdigris Valley Health Centers (AVV Health Centers) is a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) with four locations in eastern Oklahoma that offer a variety of medical and specialty services.
