PHARMCISTS SAY THEY CAN HELP
THE Pharmacy Guild of Australia says community pharmacies can play a vital role in improving men's health by providing accessible, early intervention and ongoing care. Australians visit pharmacies every three weeks on average, creating opportunities to identify health issues before they worsen. With three in five men living with a chronic condition, the Guild says pharmacists can help manage physical and mental health concerns. New Movember training will equip pharmacists with the skills to better support men through trusted, community-based care.
