PM Healthcare

For over 35 years PM Healthcare has supported the alliance between the NHS and the pharmaceutical industry for their mutual advantage.

Our Mission

'To deliver unrivalled education and development for payors and commissioners, to enhance the communication between the pharmaceutical industry and the NHS in order to continually improve patient outcomes and access to medicines.'

Pharmacy across the UK has performed outstandingly during the pandemic and the profession has created a platform for further development.

The profession has moved in to new territory with the creation of Primary Care Networks (PCNs) in England, with thousands of Clinical Pharmacists now within these PCNs.

Increasingly the significant growth in Independent Prescribing sees Pharmacists take on new roles in Primary Care which are patient-facing.

In Celtic nations the rise in significance of the pharmacist in patient care goes on unabated with Health Boards employing more Clinical Pharmacists to be in GP Practices and in Scotland the GP Contract requiring the services of a Practice Clinical Pharmacist.

The GP workforce is reducing in numbers but pharmacy is increasing so the dye is being cast.

New roles for pharmacists and pharmacy technicians means a need for new skills acquisition and PM Healthcare will reflect this in our conferences and Journals through 2022.

Hospital Pharmacy is also entering a new era with more sophisticated drugs becoming available and the drive to improve communication between secondary and primary care.

Really current, very supportive and excellent organisation, I will definitely attend more
