This week marks World Pharmacist Day. This day is intended to recognize and honour pharmacists for their significant contributions to improving global health. At Charlton Health, I am privileged to work alongside several excellent pharmacists whose dedication to patient care is exemplary. Their expertise in our areas of specialization benefits patient’s knowledge to support them on their treatment journey. We take great pride in our profession and acknowledge our many colleagues working in specialty pharmacies, community pharmacies, hospitals, family health teams, medical information services, research, and the pharmaceutical industry.
Happy World Pharmacist Day!
