WITH a vision for the future of the profession, the Pharmaceutical Society of Australia (PSA) has opened consultation on its Pharmacists in 2030 report, due for release next year. The 2030 report, which follows on from the PSA’s Pharmacists in 2023, aims to set the agenda for the next six years to ensure pharmacists meet the changing needs of Australians and the health system. To achieve this, the PSA is inviting all pharmacists, industry stakeholders, and the broader Australian community to provide feedback on the future of pharmacy, HERE, before consultation closes in Nov. National President Fei Sim (pictured) says it’s an opportunity to participate in the creation of a plan that will not only guide the future of the profession but also contribute to a healthier, more accessible healthcare system. “Pharmacists in 2030 will look at the roles pharmacists of the future can play to support patients at all stages of care,” Sim explained. “To ensure sustainability, these roles must be supported with recognition and remuneration. “Our vision for Pharmacists in 2030 involves all pharmacists, in all specialist areas of practice from community to hospital, credentialed to general practice and beyond, to be empowered to work to their top and full scope of practice,” Sim said. “This is the foundation of our pharmacists’ future,” she added.
