Pharmacy Month is commemorated annually in September throughout the country. It presents a unique opportunity to market the pharmacy profession, bringing together pharmacists and pharmacy support personnel from all sectors to communicate to the public the value that the profession holds. Pharmacy Month aims to raise patient awareness on the vital role pharmacists and pharmacy support personnel can play in the community’s health care and a time to recognise pharmacists and pharmacy support personnel contributions to quality health care.
A new theme is developed every year with the aim to strengthen the message of the previous Pharmacy Month campaigns. The National Department of Health announced that the theme for Pharmacy Month 2024 is “Let’s Talk About Vaccines”. The Pharmacy Month 2024 theme is based on the certainty that improving vaccination coverage and promoting a life-course approach to vaccination are global imperatives to which pharmacists can greatly contribute to. Pharmacists can play an important role in actively promoting vaccination, raising awareness and educating the population about the health, social and humanistic benefits of vaccines, including improvements in quality of life.
Happy Pharmacy Month to all our pharmacists and pharmacy support personnel. You play a fundamental role in contributing to the quality of health care and services offered to communities. All your hard work, perseverance and commitment is commended and greatly appreciated.
