By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.
IV. No Obligation or Commitment. You have no obligation to use or to continue to use our services. Because you pay no fee to us, you will never need to ask for a refund.
V. Complaints. Please contact our Family Feedback Line at (866) 584-7340 or
[email protected] to report any complaint. Consumers have many avenues to address a dispute with any referral service company, including the right to file a complaint with the Attorney General's office at: Consumer Protection Division, 800 5th Avenue, Ste. 2000, Seattle, 98104 or 800-551-4636.

They apparently do not train their pharmacy aids properly. You might want to find out why your sibling is doing this. Is someone interested in delivering the script to the rightful patient ‘a little light’? I mean get some out for themselves? That’s common since Xanax is the IT tranquilizer in the drug black market.
The DEA sees fit to make Xanax a Schedule IV Drug and it’s dispensed like jelly beans. People can make a nice sum diverting Xanax because it’s a great drug for your grieving mom (to take 1 when she needs it) but take 4 and the abuser is wasted and then many times have amnesia when they come to twelve hours later. DEA discernment is none existent. But anyway...
Hopefully I’m way off and it’s an ‘attack you’ opportunity where the relatives can gain favor or power or money for themselves. Get appointed POA, like that is fun in any way!
But this is true, there’s a booming black market for Xanax on the street. I think they go for $8-$10 a piece and I’ve wondered “Where do all those bonafide, pharmaceutical company grade pills come from?”
Keep your eyes on your relatives....
I am very well-known at our local CVS because my husband is on a ton of medications, but I think if one of my kids tried to pick up his meds, they wouldn’t give them out without calling me. Not the way things are now with drugs.
I don’t believe what CVS did was actually illegal, it just wasn’t smart on their part. That may be why the pharmacist didn’t have an answer. He may have been afraid you’d report them to Corporate.
The only way to work around this is for your Mom to get mail order prescription service where the pills are mailed directly to your Mom's address.
