LOCAL pharmacy assistant Samuel Vince (pictured), from Priceline Pharmacy Hobart, has been chosen to represent Tasmania at the National Finals of the 2017 Pharmacy Guild of Australia/ Maxigesic Pharmacy Assistant of the Year Award (PATY).
Judges picked Vince from 12 other state finalists at the Tasmania workshop on Tuesday where each participant demonstrated their pharmacy knowledge and showcased their skills in customer service and leadership.
"Each candidate displayed a strong commitment to their work and the industry, which was a pleasure to see -- it was a hard task to pick just one, but Samuel really shone," Pharmacy Guild of Australia training manager and national PATY judge, Deborah Scholz said.
Vince will represent Tasmania at the National Finals at the 2017 Pharmacy Assistant National Conference on 26 Oct on the Gold Coast, competing for over $10,000 in cash, prizes and rewards.
