Union group Professional
Pharmacists Australia (PPA) today
paid tribute to the hard work and
vision of Sue Kirsa who recently
stepped down as President of the
Society of Hospital Pharmacists
Australia (PD 20 Nov).
PPA ceo Chris Walton said Kirsa
had worked tirelessly to see
pharmacists better utilise their
skills to improve community health.
“Sue sought to constructively
address the barriers created by
those who only saw pharmacists’
roles existing in the four walls of a
community pharmacy,” he said.
Walton also welcomed Michael
Dooley as the new SHPA President,
saying he “looks forward to working
in partnership towards our shared
vision for a better health outcome
where pharmacists can play more of
a role in primary healthcare teams.”The above article was sent to subscribers in Pharmacy Daily's issue from 22 Nov 13 To see the full newsletter, see the embedded issue below or CLICK HERE to download Pharmacy Daily from 22 Nov 13
