BCPRA Community Pharmacy Partners

In January 2008, the Renal Agency awarded new, three-year contracts to 31 community partner pharmacies across the province, including contracts with seven new pharmacies. The new list of community partner pharmacies is available on the Renal Agency website

The new contract includes added responsibilities for the pharmacies and we will monitor their performance in a number of ways, including a survey to gauge the renal community’s satisfaction with their services. Training sessions are also being organized to introduce pharmacy staff to the special requirements of renal patients.

Our newest community pharmacy partners have told us they want to get more involved in renal care and to work closely with our renal teams.  We encourage you to welcome these new pharmacies to our community and engage their expertise where appropriate.

Do you have concerns about community pharmacies that can’t be resolved locally? Please email the Renal Agency (bcpra@bcpra.ca). We are happy to assist.
