Conference Convenor Kos Sclavos is pleased to announce that pharmacist Doug Hoey, President of the World Pharmacy Council and CEO of the National Community Pharmacists Association (USA), will return as a featured speaker.
On Thursday 20 Mar, Hoey will headline the plenary session – ‘The World Community Pharmacy Scene: Why are Some Global Giants Failing – What is the Key to Success?’.
This keynote session will explore how community pharmacies can resist the commoditisation of prescription medicines by delivering superior patient care, quality use of medicines information, and systems to improve medication compliance.
Hoey will share evidence of why some global pharmacy giants are struggling and discuss the key drivers of success in a rapidly changing health care landscape.
“We are delighted to welcome Doug back to Australia and to APP,” said Sclavos.
“His extensive experience in advocating for community pharmacy and his insights into global pharmacy issues make his sessions highly anticipated once again this year.”
The Australian Pharmacy Professional Conference and Trade Exhibition will take place 20-22 Mar 2025 on the Gold Coast.
