In this podcast, pharmacists talk about how the profession has evolved to its present condition and where they think it’s going in the future
Our podcast host, Carlene McMaugh, speaks to a number of influential pharmacists about what the profession was like in the past, how they see its current shape and where they think it is heading.
Among those in the podcast are:
- Lauren Burton talks about the importance of being aware of the history of the profession and understanding the barriers it faces, the benefits of teaming early career pharmacists with experienced pharmacists and the growing importance of electronic systems and data
- Liam Murphy discusses how pharmacy is breaking away from its traditional divisions, the growth of a broader scope of practice, the need for flexibility within your career and the importance of providing pharmacists with a framework for trying other areas and fields, both within and outside pharmacy
- Rachel Dienaar and Peter Crothers explain why its imperative that pharmacy resolves its issues around remuneration for clinical services if it is to advance a debate that has been ongoing since the 1960s
- Ross Tsuyuki says that pharmacy is struggling to identify its identity and role at the moment, and looks at the rise of Amazon and Dr Google.
