‘Health care across the world is changing very quickly. It’s being driven by innovation, and pharmacists historically have embraced innovation and technology,' he said.
‘What excites me most about our profession at the moment is that we have the chance to do more. Our scope of practice is expanding rapidly, and with that comes opportunities to help more people deliver more outcomes and improve the health system.'

With a new host and massive new venue, this year’s conference promises to be the best one yet.
A record number of pharmacists from around the country have registered to attend PSA24, held for the first time at Sydney’s massive International Convention and Exhibition Centre starting this Friday (2 August) and running to Sunday (4 August).
Following the theme ‘Pathways to Progress’ delegates can choose from over 40 education sessions that address the most current and pressing pharmacy issues and practice updates.
From understanding how Schedule 3 provision of vapes will work to getting inside knowledge about the Scope of Practice review – attending pharmacists will be armed with the latest information from national and global leaders.
Check out Australian Pharmacist’s handy gallery below, featuring some of the event’s standout sessions and speakers.
The pharmacy exhibition is also the biggest one to date, where pharmacists can speak with experts about the latest pharmacy and medical products available to boost patient care.
Don’t forget the top-tier social calendar, including the SOLD OUT ‘Anything starting with a P’ themed ECP Party – free for PSA ECP and Student Members registered for the conference.
The next morning, pharmacists can rub shoulders with PSA National President Associate Professor Fei Sim – who was just reelected to lead PSA for a third term – at an intimate Members Breakfast. But save some energy to dance the night away at PSA24’s Golden Gala Dinner on Saturday evening.
Left it to the last minute but don’t want to miss out? There are limited last minute registrations available for full, 2-day or 1-day access. For more information and to register visit the PSA24 site here.
