PHARMACY CARE - WHAT ARE THE BARRIERS TO PHARMACY DEVELOPMENT?
19 October 2022, Warsaw I International Pharmacy Conference
In three thematic panels, it was discussed, how the COVID-19 pandemic manifested itself in the development of new pharmacy services or where outdated regulation stands in the way of this development. This also played a role in another of the topics: the promotion of the pharmacy assortment and services in connection with the self-medication of patients and their awareness. The highlight of the conference was a joint declaration by representatives of pharmacy chains to the main representatives of the European Union with an appeal for pharmacists to be fully counted among health professionals within the framework of the accepted European initiative EU4Health.
