Philadelphia woman tries passing fake scripts at Palmer pharmacy

Philadelphia woman tries passing fake scripts at Palmer pharmacy
PALMER TWP., Pa. – A Philadelphia woman is facing fraud charges after she allegedly arrived at a Northampton County pharmacy Wednesday night with fake prescriptions for more than 200 pills.
Police arrested Samantha M. Brown at a Palmer Township Rite Aid with fraudulent prescriptions for Oxycodone, Alprazolam and Flexiril. The 25-year-old now faces three felony counts of trying to acquire a controlled substance. District Judge James Narlesky arraigned Brown late Wednesday night, setting bail at $7,500.
Palmer Township police were dispatched to the Rite Aid at 601 S. 25th St. about 8:30 p.m. The pharmacist told officers that a woman later identified as Brown was sitting in the waiting area, according to court records.
The pharmacist said she tried filling prescriptions for 120 30 mg tablets of Oxycodone, 60 1 mg tablets of Alprazolam and 30 10 mg tablets of Flexiril. Alprazolam is an anxiety medication, and Flexiril is a muscle relaxant.
The prescription was in another person’s name, and the pharmacist told police that she confirmed with the doctor listed on the script that it was a fake. A search of the doctor’s name listed in the criminal complaint shows a physician in Williamsport, Lycoming County.
The doctor notified the pharmacist that the prescription was not filled out in the manner he usually writes scripts and that the person listed on the prescription was not a patient.

Program management in the aerospace industry

The aerospace management has been going through difficult times. On the one hand, its commercial operations face stiff competition globally. On the other, government, which is a major source for this industry, is consistently shedding its allocation. This situation calls for adapting innovative and resource-saving measures. Aerospace Program Management is one such important tool.
Aerospace program management consists of planning and working on all the important aspects of the aerospace industry's operations. These include:
  • Designing
  • Manufacturing
  • Offering aftermarket support

What does aerospace program management involve?

Aerospace program management also consists of having to work with all the people involved in the industry, such as suppliers and partners, while working in close coordination with internal resources. In addition, aerospace program management requires the manager to analyze critical program data, while monitoring the programs that help the organization cut costs and increase efficiency and productivity.
The aerospace program manager has to optimize all the functions to help the organization derive the best out of all these. Program management is thus a combination of project management, business, process, human relations,organizational and leadership skills.

Other aspects that help in aerospace program management

Aerospace program management, along with communication and schedule management, interfacing with other units, Task Scoping, project management software use, compliance reporting and risk management, plays a vital role in helping the aerospace industry tide over its issues and challenges.

The role of software program tools

Software program management tools facilitate the work of the aerospace program management greatly by helping it have real time status at its fingertips. This helps them coordinate their functions and smoothens their day to day work. Aerospace program management tools help to keep track of the work, while also helping the manager understand the deviations, if any, and correct them.

Aerospace program management and aerospace risk management

Aerospace program management is tied to risk management. Risk management in the aerospace industry is governed by two important standards -the AS9100, and the ISO 9001, on which the former is based. These two standards work in tandem to meet quality requirements set out by NASA, FAA and DOD.
