Big news! The @fordnation government approved conditional licensure for #pharmacy interns. This comes after regulatory changes to permit challenging the OSCE on February 28! Great work by many. @OntPharmacists #pharmacists
Students of OPA retweeted
Thanks @OntPharmacists for working with the Ministry to ensure the exam proceeds.
Since results are to be released mid April, some grads will be delayed 1 yr on being RPhs. We’re waiting for an update on conditional licensure.
Lots of progress made but still more to be done.
Thank you @fordnation & @celliottability for advancing regulatory changes to ensure pharmacy interns can complete their final exam on Feb 28 for full licensure. This will help add much needed healthcare capacity and resources. @OntPharmacists #pharmacists #pharmacy #onpoli

👇🏻 share and sign the petition. Action needs to happen now.
.@celliottability @fordnation We have accumulated nearly 2000 signatures on a petition for your office in the last half a day. When will it be enough? We need your urgent attention. Reclassify the OSCE exam, or issue emergency licenses for practice. chng.it/DpdL8XZLVb

Pharmacy grads are at risk of exam cancellation again. As we continue to battle the pandemic, we need every health resource we have to deliver vaccines and maintain patient care. OPA urges the Ontario government to allow for the safe completion of exams: opatoday.com/osceexam2021/

Extremely proud the first paper from my MSc was published today with @ashleybancsi, @c4burns and @kgrindrod in @CPJ_RPC!
#Pharmacists would appreciate receiving medication indications from prescribers, which can improve medication use safety!

Premier Ford quote from Presser today after a question on COVID testing in the community: “I don’t want to just mention shoppers cause there’s other great #pharmacies out there but we hope to have announcement soon”. This will increase capacity & provide greater patient access.
