SALLY Alfieri from TerryWhite Chemmart Mandurah Forum (pictured) will represent Western Australia at the national finals of the 2018 Pharmacy Assistant of the Year (PATY) Award.
The award, now in its 12th year, recognises and celebrates the "best of the best" in community pharmacy, and is sponsored by Maxigesic and the Pharmacy Guild.
Alfieri was selected from a group of other state participants at the Western Australian workshop last week, with judge Deborah Scholz saying all of the candidates displayed a strong commitment to their work and the pharmacy industry.
AFT Pharmaceuticals general manager Calvin Mackenzie said the company was extremely pleased to be the major sponsor of PATY.
"The calibre of PATY nominees is always extremely high, which is a great indication of the outstanding contribution that pharmacy assistants make in our communities every day," he said.
Also honoured was Danielle Offer from Wizard Pharmacy Kelmscott Plaza (inset), who was the Western Australian winner of the Glucojel Super Star Award for outstanding customer service skills.
The National Finals will take place on 26 Oct during the Pharmacy Assistant National Conference.
