Barney’s Pharmacy is a family owned, full-service pharmacy and medical supply store. It is run by Barry Bryant and his three daughters, Vanessa Hoffman, Stephanie Tankersley, and Brittany Smith. Barney’s Pharmacy’s goal is to help you heal. “We want to take care of our community with a Christian heart,” says Barry. “I’m not shy about letting people know we’re a Christian run business. The Lord has blessed me, there is not a thing that I need. As long as He continues to do that, I want to continue giving back to the community and support a lot of the ministries and missions that are going on right here in our own hometown. That’s the mission of Barney’s,” says Barry. Barney’s Pharmacy offers many things for the elders in our community. Today, we are sharing three things they do to help seniors live longer and healthier lives.

Electronic Caregiver
The Electronic Caregiver is a wearable pendant that with the press of a button, you can call for help. The device connects you to their 24/7 operators that will call 911 for you and your loved ones at the same time and uses GPS tracking to find your exact location.
Medication Bubble Packs
Barney’s Pharmacy offers medication bubble packs for those who need that extra help when taking medications. All of your medications come pre-packages in bubble packs with each bubble holding the medication you need for the day. No more accidentally taking the same pill twice because you can’t remember if you have already taken it.
Wellness Classes
At Barney’s Pharmacy, they offer a variety of wellness classes. They currently offer a healthy heart class and a diabetes education class along with an ostomy support group, breast cancer support group, and a smoking cessation support group.
The name for Barney’s Pharmacy comes from the original owner, Barney Crouch. He started Barney’s with the help of some family members back in the 1950s. He is a graduate of the University of Georgia’s College of Pharmacy, hence the famous Georgia Bulldog in the logo. In the 70s, Barney Crouch sold the pharmacy and then in 1984, Barry Bryant came to Barney’s. Barry was born in Augusta and then moved to Louisville when he was eleven years old. He stayed there throughout his high school years and then attended the University of Georgia’s College of Pharmacy. After college, he moved back to the CSRA. When Barry took over Barney’s Pharmacy, there was only the Peach Orchard location. Now there are seven locations available.
