On the way in Saarbrücken and at the pharmaceutical wholesaler NOWEDA
On August 2nd, 2023, 49 interested people took part in the Action group "Lifelong learning, actively passing on knowledge" on the way to Saarbrücken. There they were given a city tour in "High German" or in "Saarbrigger dialect", depending on how they registered. Despite the rain and wind, the entertaining tour was enjoyed and then strengthened at lunch. Then came the highlight of the excursion, the visit to the pharmaceutical wholesaler. No topic is currently as topical as the supply of medicines to our population. Mr. Pharmacist Dr. As a member of the action group, Lothar Grün facilitated a presentation with a guided tour at the NOWEDA cooperative, which was founded in 1939. The plant manager, Mr. Schilke, showed the wide range of NOWEDA as a pharmaceutical wholesaler, the conditions that determine whether a drug can be delivered or not, and the route the drug has to take before it can be picked up from your pharmacist. During the exciting lecture, the participants received answers to the many questions. This was followed by a guided tour of the pharmaceutical wholesale warehouse in small groups. Meanwhile, those waiting exchanged their impressions of the newly experienced over delicious cake and coffee. Finally, the group spokeswoman Gabriele Meter-Lehnen thanked Mr. Schilke and Ms. Lauer with a "liquid drug from the Saar" for the exciting presentation and a lot of new knowledge, as well as Dr. Lothar Grün for establishing contact with NOWEDA before the enthusiastic visitors started their journey home.
