SALLY Edwards from United Chemists in Tennant Creek (pictured) has been chosen to represent the Northern Territory at the National Finals of the 2017 Pharmacy Guild of Australia/ Maxigesic Pharmacy Assistant of the Year Award (PATY).
Pharmacy Guild of Australia training manager and national PATY judge, Deborah Scholz said it was "a hard task to pick just one, but Sally really shone".
"The PATY Award was created to recognise pharmacy assistants who not only go the extra mile to help their customers but are also proactive in developing their careers," Scholz said.
"In doing so, they encourage others to strive for success and actively contribute to the community pharmacy industry."
Judges picked Sally from four other state finalists at the NT state workshop yesterday where each participant demonstrated their pharmacy knowledge and showcased their skills in customer service and leadership.
