QUEENSLAND community pharmacy has achieved a major milestone, with 5,000 patient consultations delivered through the state’s full scope program.

Chris Owen, President of the Pharmacy Guild of Australia, Qld, said it is exciting to see the program continue to grow.

“The ability of community pharmacists to practice at this fuller scope began as a North Queensland pilot and has now expanded across the state, offering Queenslanders greater access to comprehensive health care services,” Owen said.

“Community pharmacists are providing timely care where patients live, work and play, making a real difference to health outcomes across the state.”
