Our Clinical Pharmacists have expertise in identifying and solving problems concerning medications and herbal products. They will collaborate with all team members involved in a patient's "circle of care" to help ensure the best outcomes from medications with the fewest adverse side effects.
Our Pharmacists are involved in the chronic disease management programs offered by New Vision, including diabetes, mental health, and cardiovascular disease prevention and management.
New Vision has established ties with the University of Waterloo’s new School of Pharmacy. A unique feature of this program is that it offers students first hand learning experiences through co-op placements. Students alternate work terms with academic study. Each co-op placement is 4 months in duration. The students benefit from this experience as they can apply what they learn in the classroom to real life situations. New Vision healthcare providers and patients also benefit as the students bring innovative ideas from previous placements and experiences.
