Very poor PharmacyDeclares! and Faculty of Medical Leadership and Management #NonInclusive Why are Pharmacy Technicians "being investigated"? Since 2011 it has been a legal requirement to be registered like pharmacists with GPhC APTUK have many members in senior leadership positions in the NHS #ShameOnYou

#pharmacytechnicians are more than capable of running an aseptic unit and managing QMS …. working alongside authorised pharmacists (as would still be required). Yet another disappointing but not surprising example of #professionalprotectionism

Such a disappointing response when #pharmacytechnicians with the right training and experience are more than capable of carrying g out this time and in some places are all but doing so already

The Pharmaceutical Journal The PDA Worked for 43 years as a Pharmacy Technician then pharmacist, in S10 & MHRA units, on wards & as Superintendent & Chief Pharmacist I support supervision in aseptic facilities because I have witnessed how well the safe quality systems work including clinical checks by pharmacists

Fact: Whilst senior leadership in organisations / decision-making groups have tokenistic #PharmacyTechnician representation we will never see the shift required so that there's an equal focus on #PharmacyTechnicians There's a power imbalance that sustains putting pharmacists 1st

Fantastic news. Well done Amy Laflin 👏

Legislation is the enabler, regulation and professional standards are the framework to support practice. Let’s not look back in 20years and think how we didn’t take the opportunity to utilise the value of a regulated profession in pharmacy 👏for our patients and services 👍

The quality systems in aseptic services detail roles & responsibilities including chief pharmacist england.nhs.uk/long-read/assu… I support the enabling legislation that will see services improve through the professionalism of pharmacy technicians and pharmacists #StrongerTogether
