Amongst 100+ speaker sessions, Casey Hale, HPS Inventory Specialist Lead, presented “Breaking the mould: emerging roles for technicians”. Casey showcased how technicians are stepping into medication history, digital health, counselling, and leadership. As both a presenter and member of the Scientific Program Committee, Casey helped shape a program championing technician innovation and workforce development, highlighting how pharmacy technicians are driving the profession forward.

Additionally, there were three inspiring keynotes, 23 awards for excellence and purple pens galore, including some awesome giveaways from EBOS Group’s Symbion Hospitals team!
