Tuesday evening read.... ‘Patient sees doctor, they get a prescription. They collect medication at Pharmacy, they take medication to get better. Throw in a dose of chaos (global pandemic), then things become rather challenging’ docrobertsblog.wordpress.com/2020/04/28/pre…

Community pharmacies are playing a vital role in healthcare delivery during this difficult time. I am pleased to show my support for the #pharmacyheroes who are working so hard on the frontline of this pandemic. #ThankYou @CCApharmacy

@DigitalPhamcist @rpharms The first motion was defeated, but the principle was acknowledged by the society. I think you’ve started a ball rolling.

Am I the only one wishing @rpharms could live periscope the #RPSAGM ? Something to do next time, or someone can just whip out their phone now!

@ChemistDruggist @umeshmodi24 @CandDKristoffer Erm.. “This means that every medium and large pharmacy company will be deemed to be the employer of the locums it hires”....I don’t think so!

Did you know it’s @rpharms AGM on the 10th April? As a member you too can submit any matter or move any motions. I’ll be submitting a motion on fixed term limits. What would you like to submit? #RPSAGM

Thanks to @HMRCgovuk for working with us today to hold a seminar on locum tax status and to @DHSCgovuk @rpharms @FODO1 and other community pharmacy partners for joining us: bit.ly/CCAHMRC

Have you recently received an invite to a cancer screening appointment? Don’t put it on the pile, into the drawer or on the ‘I’ll do that later list’. Put it in your diary, into your calendar and make sure you attend. Early diagnosis is so important. #WorldCancerDay @McKessonUK
