Pharmacists are well placed to integrate into community pharmacies, especially as they now have an "extended scope of practice," as explained by Jenny Kirschner, National Health Programs Pharmacist. This includes prescribing for common ailments, providing immunisations and medications. Pharmacists can spend time with people and have a holistic view their healthcare. They have the opportunity to interact with people from a range of socioeconomic groups, ages, ethnicities, physical health and mental health conditions.
Jenny has worked as a health coach, as well as a clinical and retail pharmacist. Jenny is also the founder of Pharmacy Addressing Loneliness and Social-isolation (PALS).
