The community of Roblin is supporting their local pharmacy and speaking out.
A petition is at Mitchell’s Drug Store to show support, after the loss of a pharmaceutical contract to provide services at the local personal care home.
Co-owner and operator of Mitchell’s Drug Store, Sean Keehler, explains the main concern with the contract:
“The biggest impact is going to be the timeliness they can get medication to the care home. Last week alone, we took deliveries to the care home on eight different occasions throughout the week. The contract, I believe, with MediSystems, is they will deliver once a week and they will promise overnight service, but I believe that is going to be an extra cost to the care home, from what I understand, but I haven’t seen the contract, so this is just what I understand is happening.
People can sign the petition up until Wednesday.
