Theme
“From research to health care:
Your pharmacist is at your
service”

5. World Pharmacists Day 2017
 “From research to health care: Your pharmacist is
at your service” is the theme of this year’s World
Pharmacists Day.
 “This theme was chosen to reflect the numerous
contributions of the pharmacy profession makes to
health.
 From research and development of medicines, to
educating future pharmacists and pharmaceutical
scientists, and providing direct care, we do all this in
the service of our patients and communities,” said FIP
President Dr Carmen Pena.

6. World Pharmacists Day 2017
 We want to emphasise that pharmacists are the
backbone of health care in many different settings.
 But providing care does not begin in community or
hospital pharmacies. Taking care of patients starts
with recognising the health issues of populations and
developing medicines, policies and education to tackle
them.

 We pharmacists are often there at the very beginning
of the process — when the first molecule that
effectively treats a disease is identified.
 World Pharmacists Day is used by FIP’s members and
others around the globe to highlight the value of the
pharmacy profession and impact on improving health
to authorities, other professions and the media, as well
as to the general public.

 FIP is inviting pharmacists to support World
Pharmacists Day by creating profile pictures for their
social media accounts using the official FIP Twibbon
or a specially designed “Your pharmacist is at your
service” placard.
