Community pharmacy needs our support! 💪

The pressure on pharmacists is beginning to take its toll, with “an alarming 96 per cent [saying] they were at risk of burnout” in a recent Royal Pharmaceutical Society (RPS) and Pharmacist Support Workforce Wellbeing Survey.

And with a further 73% of respondents having considered leaving their job, or the pharmacy profession entirely, it’s clear that something needs to change soon…

Huge opportunity for independent pharmacies! 👀

Since Lloydspharmacy announced its plans to withdraw pharmacy services from 237 Sainsbury’s stores, Tesco and Asda have announced proposals to close a number of their in-store pharmacies…

But where will those patients go?

Well, with over-60s overwhelmingly preferring “a proper independent pharmacist’s shop rather than something tucked away in the corner of a big supermarket”...

Community pharmacies should make sure their businesses are ready for an influx of new patients and increased revenue! 💪
