COMPLETE Care Pharmacy (CCP) has expanded its community-focused healthcare model with the opening of two new pharmacy health hubs in Penguin, Tas, and Bairnsdale, Vic.
These additions join the original CCP location in Rosny Park, Tas (PD 04 Jul), and are part of a growing network set to include a new pharmacy in South Hobart soon.
The opening of CCP Penguin, owned by pharmacist and Pharmacy Guild of Australia Tasmania branch President Joe O'Malley, was marked by a celebration attended by Central Coast Council representatives, Senator Ann Urquhart, and Shadow Assistant Minister for Health, Aged Care, and Indigenous Health Services, Gavin Pearce.
The Bairnsdale location recently completed a refit and invited the local community to tour its advanced model, featuring a bespoke layout, digital workflows, and dispensing automation.
Its Managing Partner, Ian Cartney, emphasised the pharmacy's unique approach to care, noting, "Complete Care is a different and exciting way to provide elevated levels of patient care".
The pharmacy offers one-on-one consultations with pharmacists, nurse practitioners, and continence nurses, "ensuring comprehensive care from the moment patients walk in", Cartney said.
Founded by Kristina Fox, CCP aims to reshape community pharmacy by positioning pharmacists as integral healthcare clinicians.
"These stores are thriving health hubs where pharmacists focus on what matters most: caring for patients," Fox said.
With services designed to support the NDIS and foster collaboration with allied healthcare professionals, CCP continues to provide high-quality, patient-centred care to the communities it serves. JG
