Transforming the future of pharmacy practice in England

Written by AlisonFreemantle on Wednesday 27th April 2022

Joint project between RPS and the King’s Fund, webinar Monday 16th May

The RPS is carrying out a new project with the King’s Fund to transform the future of pharmacy practice in England over the next 10 years. They want to build a vision that sets out the role of and value of pharmacists and pharmacy teams working across systems, providing patient care and NHS services.

Transforming the future of pharmacy practice recognises the urgent need to build on new ways of working established across health and care systems during the pandemic to meet the increasingly complex health needs of people and improve patient outcomes. 

The consultation phases of the project will seek the views and opinions of pharmacy teams from all areas of practice including primary, secondary, social and community care to ensure that the system gets the best out of pharmacy and the public receives seamless, joined-up care. The consultation will result in a vision that sets out how the pharmacy profession can:

  • Improve patient experience and health outcomes through personalised care
  • Deliver best value from medicines for patients and the NHS
  • Help prevent and reduce health inequalities
  • Harness science, research, innovation and technology to improve treatments
  • Integrate into the wider healthcare system
  • Develop into the workforce of the future and contribute where deployment is needed

To hear more join the webinar on Monday 16th May 7pm -8.30pm.
