thats just one of the differences at the amherst dispensary which recently opened in markham in the ae lepage plaza at mccowan rd and hwy 7 amherst offers a professional format that is up to date with all of the latest drugs techniques and equipment the dispensary does not carry the every day items that most people have come to expect of phar macies instead it operates almost as a flashback to days when drug stores oper ated on a onetoone level with customers rather than the impersonal atmosphere that is prevalent in most modern pharma cies today one innovative idea original to amherst is having a registered nurse rn on duty full time markhams rn is gillian song and her role in the store is as a health teacher pa tient counsellor and resource person one of the bonuses of working here in stead of a hospital is that you can give time to people she said the rn is not the only person trained to aid the customer in the store pharmacist larry blumenfeld is also experienced in working with needs of people mr blumfield is enthusiastic about amhersts policies of customer relations in the five months weve been open weve gotten to know names and faces of regular customers said mr blumenfeld we know all the doctors in the attached medical building very well as we moved in about two weeks after they did he said he feels that rapport with people is im portant you can get excellent marks all the way through school but if you dont have a good bedside manner forget it it is the same for anyone who works with peo ple you must get along with them in my case 95 per cent of the time im dealing directly with the customers to help in any way i can he said another important aspect to amhersts service is in the way it treats the elderly or the infirmed instead of just selling spe cialty items someone from the store will actually deliver it to the person and make sure it fits amherst will deliver any order or prescription to any home in markham the store also sells other things above and beyond every day and prescription drugs everything from stiff cervical col lars to bathing suits specially designed for mastectomy patients there is a special private room for fittings and consultations with customers if any item is not immediately available it is easily ordered from one of the four other health care centres in the chain and delivered to the markham store within two days the store intends to hold its first of many health information days on october 23 the day for both doctors and the public is designed to get them acquainted with new products on the market for
