Is this what Minister of Health - Jerome Kennedy wants rural pharmacy to look like?
Will these machines deliver to Seniors? Will they write down a prescription until a cheque comes in? Will they fill out forms and submit them to government so a Senior can get their card renewed? Is this a real practice of pharmacy? Can these machines make mistakes? Will they call your Doctor? Will they sort out a seniors special authorization for a prescription necessary for life?
Will this be satisfactory for your community? Will this machine pay municipal taxes? Will this machine support a safe grad, an arena project, a music festival, a community project? Will this machine serve as a volunteer firefighter or a municipal council member?
This is not our future Minister Kennedy regardless of what other provinces are doing. Our rural communities matter and deserve equitable access and service - particularly when it comes to front-line health care?
What's next? Will a new machine be able to check you out and issue a prescription? Will these also replace Doctors?
This is the vision of a Liberal government in Ontario - and now Minister Kennedy wants to make it the vision of a PC government in Newfoundland and Labrador.
