Pharmacy

Seneca Nation Health System (SNHS) Pharmacy provides comprehensive prescription drug services at the Lionel R. John Health Center (LRJHC) and Cattaraugus Indian Reservation Health Center (CIRHC). Each prescription order is filled by either our new ScriptPro robot or a pharmacy technician, and then checked by a pharmacist to ensure safe, effective drug therapy for you and your family members. The pharmacy staff welcome any questions or concerns you may have with your prescriptions, this 'medication counseling' is offered for all new prescriptions, or anytime that you may have questions.

SNHS Pharmacy also fills prescriptions from medical providers who you see for referral specialty care, as well as orders from medical providers who may see you after hours and on weekends in urgent or emergent care settings. These orders are filled once pharmacy is notified that your care at the outside provider has been authorized by the Referrals Office.

Your SNHS pharmacists are uniquely positioned as an easily accessible healthcare professional, and have the skills and qualifications to provide valuable health information for you. Please, if the need arises, know that we stand ready to assist with your medication questions.
