Pharmacy to close to make way for Wichita hospital

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — The Wesley Outpatient Pharmacy is set to close to make way for Wesley Children’s Hospital in Wichita.

The Wichita Eagle reports the pharmacy will serve its last customers Thursday. According to the pharmacy’s owner Marc Chace, patient records will be automatically transferred to Dillons, which bought the remaining prescription medication at his store.

Hospital marketing and public relations manager Susan Burchill said the hospital is in the process of developing another outpatient pharmacy on the first floor of one of its buildings. The children’s hospital is expected to open in early 2016.
