Underfunding, dispensing at a loss, and challenges in Pharmacy First implementation are amongst the key concerns and priorities for pharmacy owners in the coming months according to Community Pharmacy England's recent digital briefing event. Focusing on critical pressures and the future, the event gave pharmacy owners the chance to find out more about CPE's work in key areas and share views on important issues. More than 500 pharmacy owners and their representatives registered for the event but, if you missed it, don't worry, you can view a recording here 👇🏻 https://lnkd.in/eErKmBnS #pharmacyfirst #pharmacypressures #communitypharmacy

Great to share what we’re doing in NEL with Saša Janković and Independent Community Pharmacist magazine to support our contractors. I am so privileged to work with a brilliant team, a fabulous committee and amazing contractors, pharmacists and pharmacy teams as well as an ICB who values the contribution of Community Pharmacy. I am so passionate about community pharmacy and the role we can play in the health and well being of people in our local communities. As Simon Sinek said: “Working hard for something we don’t care about is called stress. Working hard for something we care about is called passion” I truly believe that quote. #communitypharmacy #pharmacy #healthcare #primarycare

💊October Celebrates American Pharmacists Month💊 As we step into October, we honor and celebrate the role of pharmacists across the country for American Pharmacists Month. Their dedication, knowledge, and commitment have been the backbone of healthcare for many. But why is the role of a community pharmacist so pivotal? 🌍 Local Touch: Community pharmacists aren’t just healthcare professionals; they’re neighbors, friends, and trusted members of our communities. Their intimate understanding of local health needs ensures personalized care for every individual. 💡 Education & Counseling: Beyond dispensing medications, community pharmacists are educators. They offer invaluable advice on medication management, potential side effects, and the importance of adherence, bridging the gap between doctors and patients. 🤝 Accessible Care: For many, a visit to their community pharmacist is more frequent than seeing a doctor. They provide an accessible touchpoint for health concerns, advice, and preventative care. 🔗 Healthcare Integrators: Community pharmacists often collaborate with other healthcare professionals, ensuring a cohesive approach to patient health and optimizing therapeutic outcomes. As we recognize American Pharmacists Month, let’s celebrate our community pharmacists who play an indispensable role in our health and well-being. Their contributions go beyond the counter – they touch lives, build trust, and strengthen the fabric of our communities. Cheers to the heroes in white coats! 🥼💊 #TeamCVS #APhM2023 #pharmacistsmonth #CommunityPharmacy #HealthcareHeroes #ThankAPharmacist #AmericanPharmacistsMonth

🤫 This week at #BMSIberia we have implemented #QuietWeek, an initiative we developed at Bristol Myers Squibb which invites people to concentrate without interruptions and give space for creativity and innovation. The goal is to have time to stop, reflect, focus our attention and prioritise what's important. 🎯 Thus, during these days we minimise the number of meetings in the calendar in order to have time to review what has been done during the year, close pending issues, get to know colleagues better and define the planning for the next 2024. 💡 "Less meetings and more time to focus and prioritize" #BMSIberia #BMSPortugal #BMSEspaña #BMSCommunity #BMSTransformingLives #WorkingTogetherforPatients #BMSTransformingPatientsLive

Yes! Of course

💡💡Weekend Reflections💊💊 I had the opportunity to represent MercyOne on WOI-ABC this week. Before the interview, I asked Ali Boettcher if MercyOne has any guidance for me on what to say. Her response was “you’re a professional, we trust you.” I’ve only been with the organization 2 months so the level of trust surprised me. Questions I encourage all managers, especially those in pharmacy, to reflect on: 1. What decisions have you empowered your employees to make vs make for them? 2. Do you trust your employees to the point of making yourself a little uncomfortable? Pharmacy is better when when we empower our pharmacists. https://lnkd.in/gckrYh8i
