Our common goal is to provide the best health care for the suffering patient’s community.
Health care being complex involves the expertise of diagnosis, drugs and care. There is a necessity to modernise the healthcare system so that patient gets adequate advantage of our inputs in the form of service. In the era of information explosion and globalisation, it has become critical to safe guard the patient from ill effects of drugs and the ignorance of the patients. It has become mandatory to teach and correct every drug you prescribe to the patient. As community pharmacists, we would like to assist you in your endeavor of patient care. This initiative is based on World Health Organisation recommendations of pharmaceutical care and found to enhance the quality use of medicines for your patients. This is common practice in developed countries. I call upon you to insist your patients to avail pharmaceutical care.
