The mission of the Fond du Lac pharmacy and the
Human Services Division is to elevate the health and social well-being of
Indian people living in the service area through the provision of services,
research, education, and employment opportunities.
Fond du Lac Pharmacy Goals
The Fond du Lac Pharmacy is an integral part of a
comprehensive, community-based healthcare delivery system. Pharmacy services are patient-centered and are directed toward
optimal patient outcomes, health promotion, and disease prevention.
The principle purpose of pharmacy services is to assure efficacious,
safe, and cost-effective drug therapy and appropriate outcomes in the use
of drugs and medicines in the communities served.
Pharmacy services also require that pharmacists
consider and respect the cultural beliefs of the community they serve.
Pharmacists serve as role models for persons within the communities
who may wish to pursue careers in the health field. Education and other programs to support rational drug therapy and
appropriate use of drugs within the community are essential parts of pharmacy services.
Pharmacy services are fully integrated into the health
care system. Therefore, pharmacists may be called upon to perform extended functions, such as
primary patient care and program management.
A Message from the Pharmacy Coordinator
Since our mission and goals encompass multiple
facets of public health, we continually train and educate ourselves in many
ways to maintain our innovative practice. Our pharmacists and technicians are trained well beyond what is
required by their normal licensure or certifications with the intent to
provide better care to our patient population. Our staff has received awards locally, regionally, and
even nationally, and the program has been highlighted as one of the
innovative practices in the state of Minnesota. Although we are proud of our accomplishments and recognition, the
sole purpose for additional training, education, and innovative style is
for optimizing care to our patients.
