What is a Brown Bag Clinic?

Ss. yy Betty. Barton

It gives seniors an opportunity
to have all their prescription and

: non-prescription medications re-

viewed by a volunteer phar-

_ macist, free of charge. During a

one-to-one consultation phar-
-macists will: counsel seniors on
possible adverse effects-of their
medications. The medications
will be reviewed to determine if
they might interact negatively.
Locally, each pharmacy in
Terrace ensures that they don’t
dispense interactive drugs to in-
dividual customers. But it is
possible that two unrelated
pharmacies could dispense inter-
active medications. If drugs are
found to interact, the volunteer
will call the senior’s doctor to

_ discuss the possible problem.

The volunteer pharmacists will
give them safety tips for medica-
tion use and storage. Also, if the
medication is expired or its use
unknown, the patient will be ad-
vised. Then, it is up to the senior
to decide what to do with it, No
medications will be confiscated.

After the consultation, each
senior will receive a copy of his
or her recommendations. A
copy will also be sent to data
analyzers in the lower main-
land.

Terrace is one of six commu-
nities chosen to pilot this pro-
gram, The Brown Bag Clinic
program is one of the local com-
munity initiatives developed

.under the Seniors’ Drug Action .

Program. The Seniors’ Drug Ac-
tion Program received three-
year funding of $790,000 from
the Ministry of Labour and
Consumer Services’ TRY (The
Responsibility is Yours) Pro-
gram. .
The Seniors’ Drug Action
Program is designed to meet two

goals: to promote safe use of ©

prescription and non-prescrip-
tion drugs by seniors, and to en-
courage health professionals to
help by appropriate prescription

UVic grads

Two women from Terrace
were among the 557 students
who received degrees at the

University of Victoria fall con-
vocation ceremonies Nov. 25.
“Suzanne Urbanczyk earned a
Master of Arts degree and Dian-
na Lorenzon earned her
‘Bachelor of Education degree.
At the same ceremony special
recognition was given to
Nanaimo resident Dr. Daniel B.
Quayle for his work in shellfish
aquaculture, with the award of
an honorary Doctor of Science
degree. Contemporary Cana-
dian sculptor Ezla Mayhew

dispensing and monitoring prac-

tices.

The Brown Bag Clinic was
launched in Victoria on Nov. 23
in conjunction with Drug
Awareness Week. Chilliwack

and North Vancouver have.

already commenced their pilot
Brown Bag Clinics.
Communities were selected to
pilot the Brown Bag Clinics bas-
ed on the availability of

volunteer pharmacists. This was

coordinated through the B.C.
Pharmacists. Society. Terrace
has no shortage of pharmacists

‘willing to donate their time to

conduct the program: most of
Terrace’s 12 full-time pharma-

cists have already expressed an
interest in getting involved.
Northern Healthcare pharma-
cist Tammy Toriglia, aided by
Patty Chapman at Northern
Drugs, will be local pharmacists

to coordinate the program.

Logistics are presently being or-
ganized. Tammy was recently in-
volved in an audio conference
with the Ministry of Health and
pharmacists in the other pilot
communities. They discussed

protocol, paper work and ideas
to make the Brown Bag Clinic as
. beneficial as possible to the |

seniors in each community.
Although the Ministry of
Health is organizing the pilot

They will be recruiting local
agencies or organizations to co-
ordinate the pilot one-day
Brown Bag Clinics, Tammy
says_that Terraceview Lodge
has expressed an interest in

hosting the program in Terrace.

Geniene Sutherland, manager of
resident services, confirmed this
and hopes that the clinic can be
conducted out of Terraceview,
