We may be a little biased, but this Pharmily is the best Pharmacy team that we could have ever hoped to work with!!

This Pharmacy Appreciation Month, we want to let them know that we truly appreciate their expertise in providing quality and efficient Pharmacy Care for our patients, as well as, the way they comfortablely interact, chat, laugh with, and go over and above to serve them.

Thank you all for all you do!

We also appreciate all of our patients for entrusting our team with your Pharmacy Care!
We share this responsibility with many other Pharmacy teams within our Communities and Province, as we remain one of the most publicly accessible Health Care Professions.

Thank you to all other Pharmacy teams for your cooperation and compassion in helping us, and each other, provide the best Pharmacy Care that we can.

Oh Me Nerves....The Snow!!!

It can make everything look so clean and beautiful but it can also be a real pain in the back.
To protect yourself from shoveling ailments, there are a number of helpful things you can do:

1) Hydrate and nourish your body with some fluids and a snack before you get dressed to go outside.
2) Take a few minutes to walk around in the snow, maybe even complain a little bit, to get your blood flowing well and warm up your body.
3) If the snow is very heavy, take smaller scoops with your shovel and always focus on bending your knees before you lift.
4) Take your time and take breaks whenever you feel you need to....there is usually no need to rush on a snow day.

If you do go a little overboard and develop some back pain that might be muscle related, your local Pharmacists are here to help you out. We can assess your symptoms, current medication profile and medical conditions, to prescribe the most appropriate therapy for you.

Very importantly, if you experience any sudden crushing and heavy pain in your chest and/or pain that radiates to your shoulder, arm, jaw or back, which also may be accompanied with shortness of breath, nausea, dizziness and/or cold sweats...CHEW 2-3 ASA 80/81mg tablets or one ASA 325mg tablet and call an ambulance or have someone drive you to the closest Emergency Room.

Shovel safely!

Our Health-e Choice Pharmacy team have been working to ensure that you are able to receive your vaccinations.

Unfortunately, we do not take bookings, but we do have a walk-in clinic on weekdays, from 9:00 am until 12:00 noon and from 2:30 pm until 4:00 pm.

This year, Pharmacys can provide more vaccines to protect our patients than ever before. Along with the yearly flu and covid-19 vaccines, the following vaccines are currently available at no cost to patients, if they fit the required criteria:

1) RSV (Respiratory Syncytial virus) vaccine is available for patients over 60 years old if they live in a Personal Care/Nursing Home with other Seniors. This vaccine should provide protection for approximately 2 years.

2) Pneumococcal vaccine to protect patients from 20 different strains of bacteria that cause pneumonia. This is a once in a lifetime vaccination for most patients. It is available for everyone over 65 years old and anyone over 18 years old, if they have medical issues such that an infection with pneumonia could be life-threatening.

3) Shingles vaccine to protect patients against the nasty Shingles virus that lies within the majority of our bodies, just waiting to rear it's ugly head. This virus is well known to inflict a great deal of pain and discomfort which may last months or longer.
This is a two dose vaccine, given 2 to 6 months apart, and it provides protection for approximately 10 years...maybe longer. It is available to everyone over 50 years old.

4) Tdap(Tetanus, Diphtheria and Pertussis) vaccine is available to everyone, for booster doses, once every 10 years. This 3-in-1 vaccine provides protection from bacteria in the soil that can cause lock-jaw, which can be life-threatening, as well as, Whooping cough and the more rare Diphtheria, which can both make breathing very difficult.

5) MMR (Measles, Mumps and Rubella) vaccine is available as one or two booster doses, depending on when you were born (before 1970 or afterwards). These infections are all highly contagious and can negatively impact your health and those around you.

We hope this answers some of the questions our patients have about the available vaccines this year. Of course, we are always welcoming to any others you may have.
