LAST weekend's Pharmacy Connect conference in Sydney has been acclaimed as an outstanding success, with more than 700 attendees from across the sector at the three day event.
Twelve international speakers, including representatives from the US, Canada, South Africa, the UK and Ireland spoke about their respective experiences and lessons for Australia to ensure community pharmacy remains a viable part of the healthcare system here.
"Now in its second year, we're thrilled to see the conference continue to grow and be embraced by the industry," said convenor Kos Sclavos.
Key highlights included the Judy Liauw address on empowering women in community pharmacy, while there was standing room only in several education sessions covering the King Review and the rescheduling of codeine.
Sclavos confirmed Pharmacy Connect 2018 would take place once again at the Hilton Sydney, from 07-09 Sep next year.
