Pharmacy assistants still have time to nominate themselves for the Pharmacy Guild of Australia/Maxigesic Pharmacy Assistant of the Year Award (PATY), with self-nominations closing on Friday, 15 July.
The PATY Award is the premier award for Australian pharmacy assistants, recognising and celebrating the ‘best of the best’ in community pharmacy across a 12-month period. In addition to the main award, PATY also features the Glucojel Super Star Award, which recognises outstanding customer service.
The National President of the Pharmacy Guild of Australia, Professor Trent Twomey, said PATY recognises outstanding pharmacy assistants and at times whose contributions to patients’ wellbeing can be understated.
“I encourage pharmacy assistants to self-nominate for this great award,” Professor Twomey said.
“The PATY Award winner will be announced during the Pharmacy Assistant National Conference Dinner on Saturday 29 October, which will be the first time in two years that the winner will be announced in person.”
Aside from holding the prestigious title of Pharmacy Assistant of The Year, the winner will receive a prize package that includes a custom glass trophy, $5,000 cash, a training package provided by The Pharmacy Guild, return flights and accommodation to APP2023 and PA2023 Conferences and an invitation to participate as a judge in the 2023 PATY National Judging Workshop.
Submit your nomination before 15 July 2022.
