On May 1, 2025, dozens of delegates from the BC Pharmacy Association visited B.C.'s Legislative Assembly to showcase the work of community pharmacists and what more pharmacists can do for British Columbians.
Sponsored by B.C.'s Minister of Health, the Hon. Josie Osborne, the event included a mock pharmacy with stations on point-of-care testing for strep throat, dispensing and adaptations, pharmacy primary care clinics, rural care and immunizations. Members explained the role of B.C.'s community pharmacists and what government decision-makers could do to advance the practice and business of community pharmacy in British Columbia.
This year's Pharmacy Day at the Legislature was the first in a decade and members held 1-on-1 meetings with MLAs and their staff members to discuss our advocacy issues.
