Behind the scenes: Supply chain operations team navigates Nova Scotia's COVID-19 response and named patient safety champion nominee
Whether you stopped by your local library to grab a rapid COVID-19 test or got your COVID-19 vaccine at your local pharmacy, there was a small but mighty team that ensured the rapid tests and vaccine supplies were available for you.
Eileen Rivas de Caccavale, provincial stockpile manager, Supply Chain Operations team at Nova Scotia Health and her team of less than 20 worked around the clock to ensure personal protective equipment (PPE), COVID-19 rapid test and COVID-19 vaccine supplies were available and distributed to 4,000 organizations across Nova Scotia.
