The team at Rutland Medical Pharmacy want to acknowledge National Indigenous Peoples Day.

This is such an important day for all of us to reflect on the contributions Indigenous People across Canada make to all Canadians. We can all learn and benefit from the ways of knowing and living of the First Nations, Métis, and Inuit peoples across Canada.

More importantly, on this day we must be reminded to learn about the purposeful harms that colonization has caused. The harms that Indigenous people continue to experience, and how we all have the duty to be part of the solution. Let’s all make it a priority to be part of the solution not just on this day, but every day. To be good medicine for all.

Not sure where to start your learning? I encourage you to pick up the book 21 Things You May Not Know About The Indian Act.

Congratulations to Brad Adams, pharmacy manager at Save-On Pharmacy in Vernon on winning a new practitioner award from the BC Pharmacy Association.

I felt honoured to be recognized and awarded with the Murray Dykeman mentorship award for something I am passionate about. Helping the next generation of pharmacists learn about being "good medicine" and putting people first in their practices.

Thank you to Castanet and the Penticton Western News for picking up this article! I never expected this to make the news.

I welcome any locals to pop into to see my team and I for your pharmacy related care. You will always be valued, appreciated, and treated like family.

Vaccination your kids first measles is so important. Please read this article which has quotes from a Vernon paediatrician.

If enough people continue to forgo routine vaccinations I believe we will see diseases like polio mane a comback one day as well.

International Women’s Day is celebrated annually on March 8th to recognize social, economic, cultural and political achievements of all women.

In British Columbia, women have made significant strides and contributions in medical fields, however disparities still exist. There are still disparities in salary, promotion and leadership opportunities. While women make up a large proportion of the healthcare workforce, they are underrepresented in top leadership positions.

International Women’s Day is a time to celebrate the achievements of women and to raise awareness about the challenges they still face not only in the medical field, but also in many other aspects of society. There is still much work to be done.

The team at Rutland Medical Pharmacy believes it is important to advocate for equal opportunities and to support women in all fields. To support women in receiving the care that they need in all situations.

Thank you to all of the women in our lives, all of the women who are our clients, and to all girls and women everywhere. We see you. We hear you. We are here for you.

Liver damage due to supplements is on the rise. There are often misconceptions out there that because a product is herbal or “natural” there are no risks and that it is safe in all situations.

These products have the potential to have unwanted side effects just like prescription medications. In order to minimize your risk of you are taking herbal products or dietary supplements, feel free to stop by Rutland Medical Pharmacy. We would love to have a consultation with you to discuss this, as well as the safety of all and any medications you may take.

Please read the attached article.
