Community pharmacists represented by @PGEU are the most accessible healthcare professionals—yet spend 11h/week managing shortages. This waste of skills is a burden on our health systems. Timely adoption of CMA & pharma reform is essential to guarantee medicines supply and safety.

Aris Prins, President of @PGEU, is joining #EHS2024 for the panel "Reimagining Healthcare Systems: The Critical Role of Self-Care in Prevention and Wellbeing"

💊“As people seek reliable information on how to properly use their medications, the challenge is finding trusted and accurate sources.

🏥In Europe, pharmacies are highly accessible, with 98% of people living no more than a 30-minute walk from a pharmacy.”

[European Business Summits @ebsummiteurope]

The key question in the discussion on promoting self-care is:

💬“Are we empowering people to manage their own health?”

The conversation at #EHS2024 with Aris Prins, President of @PGEU, also explores “the potential of intervening earlier with social support to address issues before they escalate.”

[PGEU @PGEU]

At #EHS2024, PGEU's President, Aris Prins, stressed the vital role of #pharmacists in advancing #selfcare, #prevention and #wellbeing.
