If you read one thing today.
An outside perspective on everything wrong that is happening in the Irish pharmacy education scene.
Perfectly depicted as to how the warning signs were there and still ignored. #employeesnotstudents

[Shane O'Sullivan @shanesull]

Pharmacy students are now being forced to sign away their rights to payment during internships in order to graduate. Is this legal? My thoughts: Unpaid pharmacist interns – is there a remedy? https://t.co/GL0kPi2Cpq #employeesnotstudents

[Ciarán - Crazy House Prices @crazyhouseprice]

€1,200 per month for this. You'd get more space in a prison cell. What do you do if you have notions though and want to actually own some clothing? Or belongings? But sure you can hardly expect those luxuries for only €1,200 per month.... #crazyhouseprices

Pretty much every pharmacist I've rang this morning (a lot!) has been like "Really we know as much as you do at the minute, we'll call you back once we get confirmation of how we can proceed" imagine blindsiding them with one of the biggest announcements of the whole pandemic

[SligoStats @SligoStats]

72% of Mullinabreena natives think a pharmacist is when you call someone when their tractor breaks down.

[RTÉ News @rtenews]

A Dublin GP, Dr Matt O'Toole, has called for visors to be banned, calling them "unsafe" and "next to useless" | https://t.co/2SNy7y5hYV

On #WorldPharmacistDay we acknowledge the efforts of #pharmacists & their teams across Ireland to support #patients during #COVID

[FIP @FIP_org]

For many weeks now, #PharmacistsOnTheFrontline around the world have been continuing to serve their patients without faltering, keeping healthcare systems going. We are so proud of our @PharmacyHeroes!

Singing “I saw your face in a crowded place” suddenly seems a little dated.

[Fergal Bowers @FergalBowers]

Good news: HSE has notified pharmacists that they can issue repeat prescriptions for medical card patients. The pharmacist is asked to retain the last medical card script & use it for the next few months. Once the script is legally valid (that it’s dated within last 6 months).

[APPEL @APPEL_Pharmacy]

We want to give a huge shout out to our amazing #pharmacystudents! Our 5th-year students are out on placement in pharmacies and hospitals across the country, answering #irelandscall and showing that the future of pharmacy is in safe hands! #oncallforireland #Covid_19

If Mbappe had done this, people would’ve lost their minds, but since it is Plea, the response is “nice technique”.

[Antonio Rüdiger @ToniRuediger]

It is really sad to see racism again at a football match, but I think it's very important to talk about it in public. If not, it will be forgotten again in a couple of days (as always). (1/4)

Pharmacy students under financial strain and 'unmotivated' on placement - @Pharmacy_UCC to meet @PSIRegulator over #mentalhealth fears #employeesnotstudents https://t.co/wXfl4kIzbG

[Peter Patton @petapatton]

@shanesull @FrancosBruvva If you're adding value to a business/organisation/hospital by performing tasks an employee would normally/otherwise be carrying out, should it matter what you are designated as?

[Peter Patton @petapatton]

@shanesull @shanecull Whoops haha.
The irony when I would also love @shanecull's input on this.
