And just like that

For anyone complaining about health care in Alberta, here's a bulletin:  I just called SaveOn about flu shots for homebound folks because B had a fall and can't do stairs at the moment.  

"Yes, we can come to you," said the pharmacist.  And in less than 40 minutes, a charming pharmacist (she's also a swim buddy) showed up at the door and gave us both COVID and flu shots.  Just like that!

All done and dusted for this season.

How impressive!!  

I had called Shoppers, because their website advertised this service in big, bold letters, but the pharmacist there had no clue what I was talking about?  I actually had to direct him to the website that advertises it.  "Oh, I didn't know we did that?" he said, adding that they don't offer off-site shots at all.

Duh!  "Well, perhaps you need to let your owner know that it's on your site, but you don't actually offer it," I helpfully suggested.

That's when I called SaveOn and over she came.  As I said, anyone who complains about health care needs to move to Ontario to encounter real health care conundra.  That province is an unholy mess!

So, B and I have had our shots and it took less than an hour from phone call to jab.

p.s.  Don't move here because it'll ruin what we have.
