The Royal Pharmaceutical Society (RPS) in England has published a review of its 10-year Vision for Pharmacy Professional Practice that was launched in
December 2022 in collaboration with The King's Fund.
The 'one year on' vision report highlighted key milestones achieved in the first 12 months since its publication as well as opportunities for further progress.
It identified the publication of the NHS Long Term Workforce Plan, which recognises the significant role that pharmacists play in healthcare and commits to growing
and expanding the pharmacy workforce, as one of the positive policy developments made since the launch of the vision.
The development of a Vision for Community Pharmacy by Community Pharmacy England, the Nuffield Trust and The King's Fund; work on digital integration to enable
community pharmacists to update a clinical record; the launch of Pharmacy First scheme; and the publication of the public consultation of pharmacy supervision
were other key milestones mentioned in the report.
