PHARMACY inspections have
revealed a number of breaches of
legislation and/or non-compliance
with guidelines in relation to
appropriate dispensary access and
utilisation, the Victorian Pharmacy
Authority has stated in its May
2016 Communiqué.
No panel hearings were heard in
May, but the Authority expressed
concern that non-dispensary staff
members are frequently observed
carrying out activities in the
dispensary contrary to guidelines.

Act 2010 there can be no access
to the dispensary of a pharmacy
except under the direct supervision
of a registered pharmacist, the
Communiqué said.The above article was sent to subscribers in Pharmacy Daily's issue from 24 May 16 To see the full newsletter, see the embedded issue below or CLICK HERE to download Pharmacy Daily from 24 May 16
