🌟 Meet Finalist 3: Ruby
Ruby made a measurable difference to her rural community through education, prevention and engagement. During her internship, Ruby delivered contraception education to students in Years 9 -12 in Gilgandra (a town with one of Australia’s highest birth rates) and led a medication management seminar at the local hospital. Ruby’s commitment to public health saw her increase vaccination uptake by 20%, personally delivering more than 1,000 vaccinations to a community of just 3,000 people. Ruby’s work reflects the vital role pharmacists play in improving access to care in regional Australia.
Congratulations Ruby!
