A Legacy of Care
Russellton Palmer Pharmacy has been a cornerstone of the community since 1968. Founded by pharmacist Palmer Russellton, the pharmacy has remained true to its roots while embracing modern healthcare solutions. Today, continuing the family's dedication to personalized patient care, the pharmacy embraces every opportunity to enrich its community, embrace the unique characteristics of its members and always approach each day with joy.
Embracing Innovation with Parcel Health
In their commitment to providing the best possible care for their patients, Russellton Palmer Pharmacy has partnered with Parcel Health to create a beautifully custom-branded Tully Tubes. These paper pill bottles look very different than the traditional amber plastic vial. One patient, upon receiving her first prescription in Tully Tube reacted with, “Oh my, so fancy!” which delighted the Russellton Palmer Pharmacy team.
Custom Tully Tubes offer patients both innovative medication packaging solutions and the chance to recycle / compost each paper pill package instead of worrying about it ending up in landfill. Only 3% of plastic pill bottles actually get recycled, so this step toward sustainability in the community is well appreciated by its patients. Plus, this “fancy” feeling also can be a contributing factor for patients to keep up with their medication adherence, one of healthcare's biggest challenges.

Community Impact
“I decided in third grade I wanted to be a pharmacist,” Kaitlin Sullivan told The Trib in 2020. “I’ve always wanted to be a pharmacist because of my dad. I used to go to work with him a lot when I was younger and just looked up to my dad.” Sullivan likes making a difference and helping people, which she gets to do daily at Palmer Pharmacy. She and her family bought the pharmacy in 2019.
