SA honour for Kardachi
October 3, 2013
The National President of the
PSA, Grant Kardachi, has been
awarded the South Australian
Pharmacy Guild of Australia’s
highest honour for his work in
pharmacy.
Mr Kardachi was presented the
Barry Schultz Medal for Excellence
in Pharmacy by the Pharmacy
Guild’s National President, Kos
Sclavos on Tuesday night.
Chief Executive Office of the
PSA, Liesel Wett, said the honour
was well deserved and reflected
Mr Kardachi’s long-serving
commitment to community
pharmacy in South Australia, and
indeed across Australia.
“Grant has led the way and his
model is one which is looked up to
by many pharmacists as the way
to do business, and the way to
uphold the highest standards and
principles of the profession.
“The award also reflects
Grant’s untiring work in helping
to develop and implement
the Home Medicines Review
program, a program which today is
acknowledged as one of the most
successful health programs in the
country,” Wett said.
“On behalf of the PSA, our Board,
the PSA and our 18,000 members,
I congratulate the South Australia
Pharmacy Guild for presenting
this award and Grant on this
outstanding recognition of an
outstanding contribution to our
profession and all those who are
involved in it.”
The award honours the late Barry
Schultz, a former Guild leader, and
marks the tremendous influence
he had on all of those people with
whom he had dealings.
