    Stepping up to the plate

    It’s no secret that the pandemic has had a seismic impact on our lives, and the way we seek healthcare advice. Local pharmacies have seized the opportunity, stepped up to the plate and, to date, administered a record number of vaccinations to the Canadian public.   We were also in the frontlines conducting massive numbers of COVID-19 tests. But how exactly has this virus shifted the average Canadian’s perception of community pharmacists and the part that they play in healthcare?     Geraldine Vance, CEO of the British Columbia Pharmacy Association joins Pindy on this episode.  About Geraldine VanceGeraldine began her career as a journalist, which led her to interview politicians and senior business leaders. Her interaction with Saskatchewan Premier Allan Blakeney resulted in her joining his staff as the very first woman to hold the position of press officer to a provincial cabinet.

(previously the BC Medical Association) as the director of communications and public affairs. She joined the BC Pharmacy Association in January 2012 as the CEO.
