Pharmacy Daily | ASMI thanks Sclavos

The Australian Self Medication Industry (ASMI) yesterday welcomed George Tambassis as the new National President of the Pharmacy Guild, and paid tribute to outgoing president Kos Sclavos and the ongoing strong relationship between the organisations. “Together, we have been focused on initiatives that support the expanded role of pharmacists in primary healthcare delivery and entrench a powerful preventative health culture in the community,” said ASMI executive director Deon Schoombie. He said the Guild had also played an instrumental role in contributing to ASMI’s proposal for an alternative regulatory model whcih would permit branded consumer communication of S3 medicines. “ASMI looks forward to working closely with Mr Tambassis to see these important initiatives come to fruition,” Schoombie said. ASMI has also warmly welcomed the appointment of Catherine King as Labor’s Shadow Health Minister.
