After reading the New York Times article‚ When the Patient Is ‘Noncompliant’ by Dr. Danielle Ofri‚ I found it was quite relatable to the activity we were given in our experiential pharmacy class.

Whether it leads to being underpaid for services rendered or simply the inability to obtain/secure a job in the first place‚ more often than not felonies tend to create this barrier.
