‘An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” – Benjamin Franklin’

Abstract

In my previous write-ups I reminded pharmacists of striving to do their best whilst performing their professional responsibilities, aiming to be ten-star pharmacists. We need to own our space and ensure that our role as the custodian of medicine is maintained. This sets us apart from the rest of the healthcare team but also ensures that we are valued for our contribution. As medicine experts, it is our responsibility to ensure that all medicine provided to the patient has the desired or intended effect and the therapeutic goal is achieved.
