ATLANTA — Kroger pharmacies will now offer special hours for seniors and high-risk groups.
Starting Monday, all pharmacies in the Atlanta division, which includes Georgia, Eastern Alabama and South Carolina, will open at 8 a.m.
The company also announced they are installing plexiglass shields at all registers, pharmacy counters and Starbucks counters.
“The new pharmacy hours will give seniors and at-risk individuals who take advantage of our dedicated shopping hours added time to talk with a pharmacist and pick up their prescriptions without having to wait for the pharmacy to open or make a separate trip,” said Felix Turner, corporate affairs manager for Kroger’s Atlanta Division.
