THE Pharmaceutical Society of Australia (PSA) has announced the theme of Thank Your Pharmacist Day for 2024, which takes place 21 Mar, as 'More than ever'.
The annual celebration aims to bring together patients, community leaders and stakeholders from across the health sector to acknowledge the important work of Australia's pharmacists, with the new theme emphasising their growing role in the country's health care system.
PSA National President Associate Professor Fei Sim said that support for pharmacists, across all practice areas and specialisations, was more vital than ever.
"Our profession is doing more to support the health and wellbeing of Australia than ever before," Sim said.
"We are accessible in communities, offering more services, delivering more vaccinations, and making critical medicines more accessible to all Australians regardless of where they live.
"Thank Your Pharmacist Day is an opportunity for all Australians to consider all the ways in which pharmacists support our health...I strongly encourage all Australians to thank their pharmacist." JM
