THE Pharmaceutical Society of Australia has named Victorian pharmacist John Jackson as the 2018 Pharmacist of the Year, with the accolade announced on Fri during the PSA18 conference which took place in Sydney.
Also acclaimed during the PSA Excellence Awards was Dr Jacinta Johnson from South Australia, Early Career Pharmacist of the Year, while the 2018 PSA Lifetime Achievement Award went to pharmacist Ross Brown.
Each winner receives a Symbion Education Grant worth $9,000, with Symbion ceo Brett Barons saying the awards provide "much deserved recognition of those pharmacists who have contributed so much to the profession".
