As discussions of a possible upcoming election intensify, many politicians are increasingly engaging with the public, including making visits to pharmacies. If you have the opportunity to meet with any political figures, we strongly encourage you to address the critical issues impacting the sustainability of community pharmacies, particularly the need for adequate funding for our essential core dispensing services.
It is important that we present a consistent message aligned with the IPU’s stance on behalf of pharmacists. To support you in these discussions, please find a document here outlining the key points we suggest you emphasise.
Please keep us updated on any interactions you have with politicians and provide any relevant feedback by contacting jim.curran@ipu.ie.
