It was such a pleasure to welcome Cheryl’s ESL class from the YMCA Adult Learning Centre to our pharmacy today! Sam gave the group a behind-the-scenes look at how our team works together to prepare prescriptions and support patients’ health. They also learned about the kinds of questions they might be asked when visiting a pharmacy as a patient. We’re always happy to connect with our community and be part of their learning experience.

We’re open today, but as we do every year, we’ll be pausing at 11 a.m. to observe moments of silence in honour of Remembrance Day. Our phones will be on hold during this time as we take a few moments to reflect and remember.

☀️Today we’re shining a light on the sunshine vitamin, which plays an important role supporting strong bones, muscles and immune health. Here in Canada, many of us don’t get enough vitamin D, especially through our long winters. 🇨🇦

You can make sure you’re receiving enough vitamin D by combining sunshine (safely!), vitamin D-rich foods (e.g., fatty fish, egg yolks, fortified milk/plant beverages) and a supplement if needed.

The recommended amount of supplemental vitamin D typically ranges between 400IU-2,000IU per day, depending on age and various risk factors for deficiency. Chat with one of our pharmacist to learn if a supplement is necessary and the dose that’s right for you!

Safety isn’t just about preventing harm - it’s about listening, learning, and working together. During this Canadian Patient Safety Week, we are reminded to make space for every voice and take steps toward safer care.

As pharmacists, we strive to support patients and families when they ask questions. Open conversations and shared knowledge lead to stronger, safer care and better health outcomes for everyone.

👋 You may have noticed a new voice on the phone or a new face behind the counter! We’re excited to introduce Ardra, a Lambton College student completing her final field placement with us as part of her training to become a Registered Pharmacy Technician.

We love supporting future pharmacy professionals and giving students hands-on experience in a community setting. 💊

Be sure to say hello to Ardra when you’re in the pharmacy — she’s doing a fantastic job and we’re so happy to have her on our team

Happy National Pharmacy Technician Day! 💊
We are so lucky to work with a group of wonderful Registered Pharmacy Technicians who play an important role keeping Northgate Pharmacy running smoothly! Brenda brings 10 years of experience as a Registered Tech, while Khushi is getting ready to hit her 1-year milestone! From ensuring the technical accuracy of our compliance packs, to administering vaccines and demoing devices, they are certainly key members of the pharmacy team! ⭐️

Shout out to Rita who is missing in this photo since she’s currently on maternity leave with her sweet baby girl! 🩷
