1/ With much regret today we shared farewell messages with one of our most inspiring colleagues, @ManjulaHalai who has been an incredible leader for projects at the CPA. Some of the first words that came to mind included, "organised, intelligent & multi-talented"

We've launched the new ‘SPARC’ programme, funded by UK aid through the Department of Health and Social Care’s Fleming Fund. It aims to improve surveillance and prescription of antimicrobial medicines in low and middle-income countries.

Pharmacists are key to improving access to quality antimicrobial medicines.
When patients are forced to use low-quality antimicrobial medicines they have a higher risk of developing resistant infections.

CT: It's important to remember that a one size fits all approach doesn't work for everyone, so multiple strategies and tactics should be employed to combat #antimicrobialresistance#CPApharm
T4: An #antibiotics awareness tracker (physical card or digital versions) to help track #adherence and side effects so that advice can either be given in person or soft ‘nudges’ can be sent digitally to give encouragement and achieve course completion ✅ #CPApharm
Ask them about the last time they used #antibiotics to better understand what specific advice to give to help change behaviours that lead to better use of antibiotics. Make #antimicrobialresistance relatable to the individual
@CW_Pharmacists T1: It can begin with up-to-date and correct knowledge on AMR such as Continuing Professional Development (#CPD) for #pharmacists so that they can educate and counsel their patients on #antibiotics
Following the launch of the Medical Information Price-Sharing database, the #Commonwealth Secretariat is collaborating with partners including @CW_Pharmacists to share its successes at the #NetHopeSummit2021.
Find out more and register for the session tomorrow at 4pm GMT ⬇️
Continuing Professional Development (CPD) is the key to unlocking the potential to grow & develop a successful pharmacy career path.
The CPA aims to empower pharmacists to improve health and wellbeing throughout the Commonwealth.
