SHPA national president Tom Simpson talks about the paradigm shift to pharmacy career recognition offered by their new advanced practice college
Earlier this year, SHPA launched the new Australian and New Zealand College of Advanced Pharmacy (ANZCAP), a body designed to offer recognition to the myriad of specialist areas of practice within pharmacy.
Tom Simpson, SHPA national president, talks to our podcast host Carlene McMaugh about the motives behind the college, which he says has already attracted over 500 applications, and where he sees the initiative taking the profession.
Among the topics discussed are:
- Which pathways does the college recognise, and how do pharmacists identify which pathways they should be applying for recognition in? (5:30)
- Some of the common questions about the registration process, and about ANZCAP (9:00)
- What’s next for SHPA, and for ANZCAP? (12:10)
- Can all pharmacists apply for recognition? (14:30)
