A new round of pharmacy closures is hitting retirement communities across the country, and seniors say the timing couldn’t be worse. Many older adults rely on local pharmacies not just for prescriptions, but also for vaccines, health advice, and essential supplies.

The sudden loss of neighborhood pharmacies is creating widespread concern among older adults.
