Rexall Takes Steps To Support Communities Across Canada During Covid-19
At Rexall, the health and safety of our employees, customers and patients remains a priority. As we work through COVID-19, Rexall will continue to focus on important actions such as:
- Staff education on proper infection control processes
- Frequent hand washing with soap/water or alcohol-based gel as outlined by Public Health Agency of Canada to prevent the spread of COVID-19
- Routine and thorough cleaning protocols at our stores/facilities, disinfecting all high-touch areas.
- Ensuring employees and pharmacists have the information they need to stay healthy or to stay at home if they are feeling unwell
- Cascading material related to COVID-19 to our store teams on a regular basis so that they can keep informed of the latest operations information
- We have also encouraged social distancing and will continue to examine all measures to ensure the safety and health of our employees.
Partnering With Tia Health To Provide Access To Virtual Care For Employees, Customers And Patients
Rexall has partnered with Tia Health to launch a virtual care service for patients to help relieve the current burden on the acute healthcare system, specifically emergency rooms and hospitals. Patients will be able to talk to a doctor from the comfort of their homes by video chat or phone call and receive safe and effective medical care.
Virtual care is covered by the provincial health plan in Ontario (OHIP) and British Columbia (MSP), but not the other provinces. Patients with a valid Ontario or British Columbia health card will not be charged. Patients in other provinces will receive a receipt that may be reimbursed through a health spending account or other private insurance.
Rexall is making this service available free of charge for its employees.
