Last weekend we hosted a small Grand Opening celebration at Ouyen Pharmacy π
It was our way of saying thank you π to the many people who helped us reach this milestone, to showcase our new facilities, and a chance to bring together key healthcare partners to explore how we can work even more closely together for the benefit of our community π©ββοΈπ¨ββοΈπ

A special thank you to Jade Benham MP for officially opening the ceremony, and to representatives from the Pharmacy Guild Victoria Branch and The Pharmaceutical Society of Australia (PSA) who joined us on the day. It was fantastic to demonstrate the innovations and investment that is occurring in our small town to help re-balance rural health inequity.
π¬ As Pharmacist Alex (A1) shared in his speech that Ouyen Pharmacy's vision for the future was to transform from a mere retail shop... into a true health destination for the community π with expert advice, and convenient clinical services.
Ouyen Pharmacy's new facility now includes THREE (3) clinic rooms to support MORE visiting health services and pharmacist-led care than ever before!
Also, both Pharmacist Alexs A1 and A2 are currently studying πPharmacist Prescribing through Monash University .
Expanded clinical skills + modern facilities = more healthcare services, closer to home for our rural community. πΎπ
Now that the years of planning, organising, and strategising are finally coming together, itβs incredibly exciting to be working in a beautiful new space π... thoughtfully designed with a clear vision: to improve our communityβs access to care. πΎπ
