THE Pharmacy Guild of Australia reminds community pharmacies that third-party nominations for the Pharmacy Guild of Australia/Maxigesic Pharmacy Assistant of the Year Award (PATY) are closing today.
PATY is the premier award for pharmacy assistants, recognising and celebrating their leadership, innovation, and community service.
Third-party nominations can be submitted by pharmacy owners, pharmacists, industry representatives, other pharmacy assistants or customers online, and takes less than 10 minutes.
Pharmacy assistants nominated by a third party will need to respond by Mon 15 May to their nomination to be in the running for the 2023 PATY Award.
PATY2022 Winner Terri Bakker said that PATY had given her more confidence in her career as a pharmacy assistant, to further pursue different elements within community pharmacy.
The PATY2023 winner will receive a $5,000 cash prize as well as flights, travel and accommodation packages to attend Guild conferences to support their career and professional development.
If you know a deserving pharmacy assistant, or want to self-nominate, submit your nomination before 5pm AEST today HERE.
