Min, along with Larry Leung, recently received the 2014 Ben Gant Innovative Practice Award.

The award, which is handed out by the B.C. Pharmacy Association, recognizes association members who have demonstrated significant innovation in his or her practice and the profession.

In 2010, Min, a Ladner resident, and Leung established Clinicare Pharmacists, a non-dispensing pharmacy organization that provides innovative patient care services.

Partnering with local nurses and aboriginal community members, the pair established clinical pharmacy services for the home and community care programs in Bella Bella, Bella Coola, Klemtu and Mount Currie.

The services offered include clinics for blood pressure, foot care and fall prevention, home visits and patient education.

The two men also received the B.C. Community Achievement Award earlier this year.
