Hey Pharmacists!
Please join pharmacists around the world for a day of celebrating their contributions to health care and our communities. Every day, pharmacists quietly and efficiently help patients in many ways and in many diverse practice settings. For one day, the world will hear about it on Twitter.
On Thursday, October 2, pharmacists will tweet about the real things they are doing or did that day to help patients, other health professionals, and their communities. While every pharmacist faces challenges in the course of his or her practice, this is a day to highlight through social media the positive impact that pharmacists have on their patients and bring attention to the good work they do to help patients live healthier lives.
Did you help a patient save money on their expensive prescription medication?
Did you catch a wrong dosage on a doctor's prescription, avoiding a potentially dangerous drug interaction or reaction?
Did you resolve an insurance issue for a patient?
Share your experiences with others around the world by tweeting them on Thursday, October 2.
WHAT IS THIS TWEET-A-THON?
