Prescription Delivery Service for Milwaukie Residents 60 and Older

In order to assist Milwaukie’s more vulnerable populations and in support of Governor Kate Brown’s most recent Executive Order regarding social distancing, the Milwaukie Police Department (MPD) is offering a free prescription pick-up and delivery service for the most at-risk seniors.

Effective April 1, the MPD can pick up prescription medication and deliver it to private residences within the city limits of Milwaukie from pharmacies at Rite Aid, Safeway and Walgreens. This program is in effect for the duration of the governor’s executive order, currently set to expire on April 28.

This service is for those who are 60 years of age and older, and have a serious preexisting medical condition. In order to participate, residents must live within the city limits of Milwaukie, and need to contact the MPD between 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, at 503-786-7400.

Participants will also need to:

• Contact a pharmacy located in Milwaukie and order the prescription (Safeway Pharmacy: 503-659-1840, Rite Aid Pharmacy: 503-652-8058, Walgreens Pharmacy: 971-233-1002)
• Pre-pay for the prescription and any associated co-pays.
• Advise the pharmacy that the MPD will pick up the prescription.
• Provide name, address, phone number, date of birth, prescription name and pharmacy location to the MPD.
• Have a valid identification available when the officer arrives at your residence. The officer will confirm delivery of the prescription by taking a photo of the identification in lieu of a signature to minimize person-to-person contact.

Staff delivering the prescription will always wear official MPD or City of Milwaukie attire with identification. They will also wear personal protective equipment and maintain social distancing for all deliveries.
