To all fellow pharmacists
Please take the time to look at the link below and sign the petition. Since the case of Elizabeth Lee and the RP regulations coming into force on 1st October, I feel that this is very important.
Please forward this on to your colleagues and peers.
Kind regards

There’s an interesting piece in the PJ this week about the differing views of the NPA and PDA over the responsible pharmacists consultations and specifically the need to record a reason for the RP’s absence. Unsurprisingly the contractor dominated NPA want the RP to be able to leave the premises without ever having to record a reason while the PDA want a reason recording every time!
The NPA is an organisation which is primarily there to support pharmacy contractors businesses. The PDA is the voice of the profession not business and should be the one that prevails in this debate

Just a quick post to remind all pharmacist that they need to renew their GPhC registration by the 31st October. So you still have a month to pay but if you are anything like me, if you don’t do it now, there’s a chance you’ll forget!
