The Pharmacy Guild of Australia has once again rewarded excellence in community pharmacy through the Quality Care Pharmacy Program (QCPP) Pharmacy of the Year awards, which provide the highest recognition of superior achievement in the industry.

The awards recognise excellence in pharmacy across three categories. Each category is awarded to a different community pharmacy, with the overall Pharmacy of the Year for 2013 being selected from these three category winners. 

The overall winner is the pharmacy that stands out among the finalists and demonstrates achievements across each of the three categories.

 

And the winner is…Lim’s Pharmacy

The honour was announced in March at the Australian Pharmacy Professional conference (APP) on the Gold Coast.Lim’s Pharmacy is the community engagement category winner, and was judged to be the best pharmacy overall. Owner pharmacist Richard Lim accepted the award on behalf of his team.
