I remember when the swell of secondary infections hit China last year and there was speculation it was a new virus. I cried. I cannot do it again. No one can.
Why can’t we learn and do better?
Sigh.

Oh. And

So excited to share that I am headed back to Zambia in fall 2024. We hope to leave behind a fully functional medical clinic at the school in Solwezi. I self fund this trip, any donations go to the supplies I will bring. Many thanks!

Starting to write a series for my Pharmacy Practice+ blog about Pharmacy leadership.

I’m often asked how I got into a space. Why I’m asked to speak in a space. What my journey was.

There are so many amazing leaders in this space. Together our voices matter. For the profession & patients

A moment that lives rent free in my head: I’m about to go on stage at a conference when the organizer whispers urgently to me “Kristen do you have a hair brush?”

Stricken, I say “No! Do you need one?”

She quietly replies “No… you do…”

are not able to prescribe or inject the measles vaccine. We have no access to the publicly funded vaccine at all. With a direct order we can order unfunded vaccine and administer and charge the patient. Seems silly with the rise of cases doesn’t it?

Note on a patient profile at Kristen's Pharmacy '20210323- called to offer help booking COVID vaccine but she has already booked online herself'

Online & mail order Pharmacies don't do these things for their patients.

is vital to the health of a community.

Another PBM restricting patient choice in Canada. Telus employees now must use their own mail order Pharmacy. But did you know the ODB program ⁦Ontario Ministry of Health⁩ also uses Telus to process claims? Tax dollars supporting a company restricting access. Shame. cbc.ca/news/business/…

My kids, understanding the media: Mom, if you had the money Taylor Swift had you could look that good too.

Me: are you saying I *dont* look that good

Boys: panic

The replies on this post 😱😱

Titres cost money and time for the patient and the system. Give the dose.

It’s time to leverage Pharmacists - proven to vaccinate millions when needed.

And it’s time for a comprehensive vaccine registry.
