Community pharmacists represented by @PGEU are the most accessible healthcare professionalsโyet spend 11h/week managing shortages. This waste of skills is a burden on our health systems. Timely adoption of CMA & pharma reform is essential to guarantee medicines supply and safety.

The key question in the discussion on promoting self-care is:
๐ฌโAre we empowering people to manage their own health?โ
The conversation at #EHS2024 with Aris Prins, President of @PGEU, also explores โthe potential of intervening earlier with social support to address issues before they escalate.โ
