Terry helps Aussies breathe
September 28, 2012
THIS month Terry White Chemists
launched a new Asthma Friendly
Pharmacy Program, with the goal of
having Asthma Pharmacists in each
one of its 160+ pharmacies
nationwide.
The program involves Terry White
pharmacists undertaking intensive
training with Asthma Australia in
order to assist people with their
asthma medications, questions,
concerns, and with tapping into
community health support services.
At present more than 50 Terry
White pharmacists and pharmacy
assistants have completed the
training.
“That training is the first step in
establishing Asthma Friendly
Pharmacies,” said Asthma Australia
spokesperson Simon Bowler.
“Staff will be working to set up
systems to make sure people with
asthma get timely medication
advice and referral to their doctor,
and to their local Asthma
Foundation, for information and
support,” he added.
