A proud day for community pharmacy.
Today, John Keane, pharmacist and owner of HealthPoint Pharmacy, joined a delegation from the Irish Pharmacy Union at Leinster House for Dáil statements recognising the contribution of pharmacists to healthcare in Ireland.
Minister for Health, Jennifer Carroll MacNeill, thanked pharmacists and pharmacy teams for their ongoing professionalism, support and care within our communities.
It was John’s first time attending a Dáil session and a proud moment to hear that contribution recognised.
As we celebrate World Pharmacy Week and look ahead to World Pharmacists Day tomorrow, we want to thank our whole HealthPoint team: pharmacists, technicians, front of shop advisers, trainers and educators.
Your knowledge, kindness and care make a difference to our patients every day.
Thank you to the IPU for the opportunity to attend and for continuing to champion our profession.
Local Pharmacies. Stronger Together.
