Pharmacy isn’t just about prescriptions—it’s about whole-person care. 💊 Clinical Professor Virginia Lemay at URI integrates wellness, holistic health, and mindfulness into pharmacy education, inspiring future pharmacists to treat body, mind, & spirit! #URxI
"It is more than just giving them a pill to fix X, Y or Z," says Dr. Ginger Lemay, @URI_Pharmacy. "What else can I do to support this patient?" Last year, students voted her Faculty Member of the Year. For more of her perspective on #holistic health 👇
