MORE than 100 people attended the Pharmacy Catalyst Retail & Buying Group annual Pharmacy Catalyst Conference held recently in Hobart, Tasmania.
Summarised as "a great success", the event was attended by delegates, suppliers and guest speakers including former Tasmanian Premier David Bartlett.
Topics covered during the three days focussed on "the need for exceptional pharmacy implementation and the need for customer-centricity to compete as a community pharmacy".
Pharmacy Catalyst gm Andrew Pattinson said, "It was a fantastic opportunity for independent Pharmacies to come together and share ideas and initiatives they have implemented to collectively grow in the coming year.
"Our focus as a group is to provide the services that Pharmacies can access to position themselves as the health solution provider at the core of their community and engage both their staff and customers".
The 2018 Pharmacy Catalyst awards presentations went to Lanyon Pharmacy (Pharmacy of the Year - pictured are Mark Leighton and Nicole Hooley), Southcity Pharmacy (Professional Services), Life Pharmacy, Forbes (Community Engagement) and Forestville Pharmacy (Pharmacist of the Year).
