Coal-face exposure is critical to ensuring industry-preparedness for our onsite pharmacist candidates. Our collegial approach to training is also beneficial given the aged care setting is often new and can be initially quite confronting for many pharmacists. 🐶 This good good boy was on hand to welcome our 7th Aged Care Onsite Pharmacist/MMR cohort to their Work Integrated Learning residential home in Brisbane. #Workforce_development #Industry_preparedness #Eden_Alternative
