The Society of Hospital Pharmacists of Australia

The second half of 2017 will see hospital pharmacy set its eyes on the future as SHPA’s twin key events opened to application and registration this week.

2016-17 was a landmark year for SHPA with a new journal, international partnerships, national research collaborative, specialty practice model and advocacy efforts adding to our suite of existing member benefits.

A snapshot SHPA survey of Australian hospital pharmacists has revealed shortages are more prevalent than previously thought, are only flagged by pharmaceutical suppliers 15 per cent of the time and negatively affect patient treatment in one third of cases, prompting calls for urgent improvements in medicines supply.

The MM2017 Call For Abstracts is now open, and we encourage you to take to this opportunity to share your work with your colleagues and peers.

SHPA has a diverse membership of pharmacists, pharmacy interns, pharmacy students and technicians working in a wide range of healthcare settings.
