SOCIETY of Hospital Pharmacists of Australia (SHPA) ceo Kristin Michaels has opened the Medicines Management Conference in Perth with a speech claiming SHPA is "not the largest pharmacy organisation but it is the only pharmacy organisation that is focused on, and can deliver, better, cost-effective health care".
She highlighted SHPA's workforce strategy, with delegates hearing that transformation is "necessary if pharmacy is to continue to deliver healthcare that meets the future needs of patients".
She also called for a rethink around the future of healthcare, eschewing "archaic practices that limit the role of the hospital pharmacist in patient care".
