At our first RPS Regional event, participants shared and celebrated the innovative pharmacy practice happening right now across Scotland; that’s what this event was all about. Watch the sessions back here to gain new ideas and inspiration from an agenda focused on positivity, sharing and development.
Celebrating and sharing best practice
In February 2022, RPS Scotland published “Pharmacy 2030“; a professional vision for the future, in collaboration with the National Pharmacy Technician Group Scotland. Pharmacy is already on a journey to achieving this vision.
