At Nuxalk Nation Health and Wellness in Bella Coola, B.C., a medication review may also include a discussion about traditional medicines, a follow-up through a monthly virtual clinic or a referral to a unique diabetes education program inspired by community feedback.

It’s the latest chapter in a project first supported by the Canadian Foundation for Pharmacy’s Innovation Fund in 2023. Over the past three years, the partnership between the UPROOT Team, led by Larry Leung and Jason Min, each of them an Associate Professor of Teaching in the University of British Columbia’s Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, and Nuxalk Nation Health and Wellness, has continued to grow, with new clinical services, expanded student learning opportunities and an evolving vision for community-based pharmacy care.

Funded by the Nashat Family Community Pharmacy Fund, part of CFP’s Innovation Fund, the project aims to determine whether AI-generated notes can accurately capture pharmacist consultations and ultimately improve both workflow and patient care.

Few people have left a mark on Canadian pharmacy as profound and far-reaching as Glenn Rodrigues. Through his leadership, mentorship and unwavering belief in the potential of pharmacists and pharmacy teams, he helped reshape community pharmacy practice in Nova Scotia and inspired colleagues across Canada to think differently about what pharmacy could achieve with the right tools.

Rodrigues will be honoured posthumously for his Pillar of Pharmacy at an awards dinner November 4, 2026, at the Delta Hotels Dartmouth in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. Friends, colleagues and members of the pharmacy community are invited to celebrate his remarkable legacy and lasting impact on the profession.
