The growing role of pharmacists in primary care Canadian Pharmacists Association As health systems start to recover from the pandemic, pharmacists across the globe have cemented their role as integral partners in health care. From providing vaccinations, to prescribing for common ailments, governments are increasingly relying on pharmacy professionals to deliver routine primary care services to patients in their communities. Pharmacies are stepping up to lead new models of primary care that are now critical to keeping patients out of hospitals and emergency rooms, while improving health outcomes. The session will be presented by the chair of the Canadian Pharmacists Association, Dr. Shawn Bugden, who will provide case examples of new Canadian pharmacy led primary care models, including pharmacy walk-in clinics pilots. |
