If I have a virtual visit with my pharmacist, can I still get a prescription? 

Pharmacists may provide minor ailments services virtually, and must follow the Code of Ethics, Standards of Practice and relevant policies and guidelines including the College’s Virtual Care Policy. Importantly, the pharmacist must first determine that the manner in which virtual care is provided is suitable for the patient assessment and will enable them to meet all legal and professional obligations. For example, if a physical assessment is necessary, the pharmacist must ensure that a virtual assessment is as safe and effective as an in-person assessment. Patients are encouraged to speak to their pharmacist to find out what healthcare services they offer and whether they are right for their needs.
