I guess the feeling is clear. In the current cost of living crisis the whole of pharmacy workforce needs to be paid better. We canโt take pressure off the GPs if we have no one to work in the #pharmacy.
In the discussion about whether thereโs a shortage of pharmacists, thereโs been a dearth of evidence on both sides of the debate. Hereโs some.

I often greet customers at work and ask how can I help, only for them to look straight past me to my seniors stating โIโd like to speak to the pharmacistโ... as much as itโs annoying I love the shock on their face when I say thatโs me ๐
@pharmasoph_ I think it's probably a fairly common issue. You handled the situation really well though and actually tried to resolve the issue. I normally just end up so frustrated with 111 especially as there's no easy way for us to get hold of them. ๐๐
Yesterday I found out that I'm FINALLY a fully qualified PHARMACIST! ๐ฅณ The relief is incredible and I'm beyond grateful to all those that helped me on the journey to get to this place! ๐๐คฉ #gphcexam#provreg
Growing up, my Muslim family never celebrated Christmas. This year I am not going home, because pandemic, so my roommates are teaching me how to have my first proper Christmas.
I am approaching this with anthropological precision.
Here are a few observations.
@sayyu_m: "isn't Kenya ๐ฐ๐ช in Tanzania ๐น๐ฟ?" Me: "no, they're two separate countries..." Sayyeda: "Are you sure tho...?" Me: "Bruh my family are from there" Sayyeda: "Oh damn even @Nas_Riahi knew that..." ๐คฃ๐
First day of flu jabs done โ As it's my first time administering them I had 5 #jabs supervised by a senior pharmacist and then I did 2 by myself! ๐ #FluSeason#FluVaccine#communitypharmacy

Iโm not going to be a pharmacist who holds back the future pharmacists of this profession. Iโll support them to do things safely and effectively. Lots of people donโt see our potential. We shouldnโt be holding back our future pharmacists. YES YOU CAN.
Just received confirmation from @TheGPhC that I will be joining the register as a #provreg#pharmacist from August 1st! Really excited to begin this new chapter and I can't wait for the next few weeks as I start my new role as a @superdrug relief pharmacist ๐ฅณ๐๐ผ๐คฉ #pharmacy
