It was mentioned that institutions were advised to download magazines from BARD for distribution. It was mentioned that one nursing home had purchased cartridges to distribute magazines. Debbi mentioned that at one time we had to tell institutions they were not eligible for BARD and maybe that is why they are not asking for magazines.\\ |
