THIS year's Australian Pharmacy Professional Conference (APP2019)and Trade Exhibition will include a presentation by Shadow Minister for Health and Medicare, the Hon. Catherine King MP.
The announcement of King's participation follows confirmation earlier this week that the opening keynote presentation will be delivered by Health Minister Greg Hunt (PD Wed), with APP Chairman Kos Sclavos saying it was important to hear from all major political parties in the lead up to the pending Federal Election.
King's session will take place from 10.45am on Thu 07 Jun, allowing delegates to hear the Labor Party's policy position on community pharmacy.
"As a supporter of pharmacists, Catherine King MP is a firm believer in having a 'broader' role for pharmacists in Australia's health system," Sclavos said.
Other speakers at APP will include futurists Dr Keith Suter and Shara Evans exploring the possibilities for the future of the sector, along with tech entrepreneur Steve Baxter and TV personality Lauren Fried.
