Also on the list of new Fellows is former PSA NSW President Chelsea Felkai who led the organisation through COVID-19; renowned consultant pharmacist Sarah Gillespie; former PSA/NT Branch President Robyn Johns who was instrumental in the SA implementation of Real Time Prescription Monitoring; and allergy and Western Australian anaphylaxis researcher Sandra Salter. They’re joined by Faye McMillan, Australia’s first registered Aboriginal pharmacist; compounding software developer and inventor Andrew Sluggett; aged care clinical pharmacy leader Natalie Soulsby from Ward MM; and senior WA pharmacist Andrew Stafford who was the first pharmacist director of Dementia Training Australia and a contributor to the Australian Pharmaceutical Formulary and several key PSA Guidelines. PSA National President, Dr Fei Sim, congratulated the Fellows for their “significant advancement and achievement in the practice of pharmacy” over the years. “Each of these pharmacists has made significant contributions to pharmacy, exemplifying the passion of our profession,” she said, thanking them for their ongoing service and dedication to improving pharmacy practice and patient care.
