There
is a way out of the nightmare of drug addiction/ alcoholism!!
Montana Pharmacy Recovery Network is a group of recovering pharmacists
throughout the state who are available to speak one on one with anyone
who is concerned about themselves or someone else in the profession
of pharmacy. We can assist the individual in getting the help they
need, while maintaining a sense of dignity and self respect throughout
the process. MT PRN operates on a strictly confidential basis. The
toll free hot line is available on a 24 hour basis.
Chemical dependency (including alcohol) rates are generally higher
for health care professionals. Pharmacists have a one in eight ratio
compared to the national ratio of one in ten persons caught up in
the cycle of addiction. One out of three pharmacists are likely to
come in contact with a chemically dependent pharmacist during their
professional lifetime. Unfortunately, this is a fact of life and our
goal is to educate, prevent, intervene, and support pharmacists/ pharmacy
students/ and pharmacy technicians experiencing problems that threaten
their well-being and the quality practice of pharmacy within the community.
The toll free number is 1-888-322-9674.
