Towards 2035

Four Focus Areas

To achieve the vision set out in Towards 2035, we’ve defined clear areas of focus that reflect the priorities of community pharmacy and the needs of the communities we serve. These focus areas provide a practical framework to guide our work and measure our progress over the decade ahead.

Patient Services and Innovation

To advance patient-directed care through pharmacy services and the unique cognitive practice of dispensing. Community Pharmacies deliver accessible, safe, and effective care by embracing new technologies, expanding professional services, and fostering collaboration across the healthcare system to improve health outcomes for patients.

Member Services, Value and Engagement

To focus on members as the core purpose of the Guild by delivering industry leading and innovative business practice solutions, advice, and engagement. To continue the Guild’s pursuit of governance excellence.

Advocacy and Partnerships

To advance, promote and demonstrate the value and opportunity of community pharmacy to patients and Governments, as an essential component of Australia’s primary health infrastructure. Develop and collaborate on game changing partnerships that enhance patient outcomes.

A Thriving Community Pharmacy Network

To ensure patients have equitable access to a network of local community pharmacies providing medicines, everyday health services and health consumables from a Pharmacist and Pharmacy Assistant. Secure a thriving partnership with Governments to deliver patient benefits and healthier communities.
