This award forms part of the refreshed National Pharmacy Awards, which recognise the evolving role of community pharmacy and highlight excellence, innovation, and leadership across the sector. Celebrating student pharmacists is central to that mission - acknowledging their advocacy amongst their student communities, passion for patient care, and the vital role they will play in the future of primary healthcare.
Winners from NT and WA will be announced in the coming weeks. Keep an eye on australasianpharmacy.com.au for the latest updates on the awards and all things pharmacy.
