PHARMACISTS often serve as the first point of contact for veterans, providing essential services and support.
To enhance healthcare access for Australia's 580,000-strong veteran community, healthcare provider, Provocatus, will showcase its latest initiatives at the Pharmacy Connect 2024 trade exhibition.
"We are passionate about assisting veterans to access supported healthcare in their local community and believe pharmacies play an important role in this," said Provocatus CEO Kasey Mumford (pictured).
The company has developed a program offering specialised resources and training to help pharmacists navigate the unique challenges of veteran healthcare.
Central to their presentation is the Veteran Access Scheme, which facilitates access to critical treatments through collaboration between veterans, GPs and community pharmacists.
The scheme is supported by four essential pillars: medication, appliances, clinical wellness, and health education, which ensure that veterans receive comprehensive support.
