Pharmacy Assistant of the Year Award Announces National Sponsors

The Pharmacy Guild of Australia is pleased to announce the sponsors of the 2020 National Pharmacy Assistant of the Year Award.

Following three years as major sponsor, Maxigesic has continued its support for pharmacy assistants and will once again be the major sponsor of the Pharmacy Assistant of the Year Award (PATY).

Now in its 14th year, the Pharmacy Guild of Australia/ Maxigesic Pharmacy Assistant of the Year Award (PATY), is the premier award for Australia’s 35,000 pharmacy assistants.

The Pharmacy Guild of Australia National President, George Tambassis said that the Award is the premier opportunity to recognise the outstanding contribution that pharmacy assistants make to the community pharmacy industry.

“Pharmacy assistants are at the forefront of community pharmacy – providing care, compassion and connecting with people to make a difference. With the support of our major partners, we look forward to acknowledging and celebrating more pharmacy assistants than ever before.

“Alongside Maxigesic, I am pleased to once again welcome Glucojel as sponsor of the Super Star Award, a subset of the main award which recognises outstanding customer service from our pharmacy assistants.

“We’re pleased to partner with AFT Pharmaceuticals Pty Ltd in 2020, utilising the Maxigesic® brand, as well as Glucojel, and Retail Pharmacy to deliver this important and respected Award,” Mr Tambassis said.
