Teva UK Limited fully understands and appreciates how important and challenging the pharmacist’s role is. From being the first contact with a health care professional the patient may have; to providing advice on treatments, and working collaboratively with other health care professionals – we know it’s a challenging role and one that fully deserves to be rewarded. Of course a pharmacist brings a lot more to the role than just their knowledge.
It is a very varied profession, which requires an individual in possession of a wide range of skills and competencies – including a strong appetite for continuous learning, first class customer service skills and adaptability to implement the range of innovative new services now available through pharmacies. With the magnitude of the pharmacist’s role in mind, we at Teva are delighted to show our support to the profession through supporting the Pharmacist of the Year category at the Scottish Pharmacist Awards.
As a leading generics manufacturer, Teva is committed to the industry as a whole and we have the resources to be able to tailor our offering and provide pharmacy and pharmacists with exactly the kind of support that’s needed to allow community pharmacy in Scotland to continue with the important job of delivering first class healthcare to patients.
Teva UK Ltd
have been around for over 80 years and supply more packs of medicine to the National Health Service than anyone else!
The team at Teva and I are extremely passionate about our customers in Scotland and we’re confident that we can continue to work with local pharmacy to improve health and make people feel better.
Best of luck to those individuals and teams that are nominated or enter the Scottish Pharmacist Awards.
