The Pharmaceutical Society of Australia and the Royal Australasian Society of General Practitioners last week signed an historic agreement for the two bodies and professions to work more closely together.
I see this as eventually a win for patients as pharmacists begin to work more closely with general practitioners and hopefully expand the work often done by individual pharmacists profession wide with the support of the RACGP.
All we need now is the Pharmacy Guild (pharmacy owner representatives) to stop wanting pharmacists to only work within pharmacies.
The press release is below. If it does not show correctly in your browser there is a link at the bottom to download the small PDF.

Over the last little while there has been a political storm over the signs being placed at schools which have funding under the stimulus package to build something.
The signs are too expensive, too big, need to be moved away from entrances to comply with electoral act and on it goes.
I have already put up my “Road to Recovery” road sign from the middle of nowhere.
Here’s another one:
This sign is 1000 kilometres from the nearest sizeable town and would have been trucked out from Perth 1400kms away, along with the cement needed for the posts. Labour costs are also quite expensive out bush and the time would have been better spent on the power station.
This sign is 12ft high, has the aboriginal name of the community spelt incorrectly and is on a private road to the airstrip on an aboriginal community where there are no passer bys. An exploration crew goes past it weekly for fly in and fly out workers and the community has a plane flight a week.
Why is it needed?
Have a pleasant Sunday afternoon everyone
