“I have been a member of the PDA since I qualified as a pharmacist and I believe it is the only organisation that truly represents individual pharmacists. A while ago, I was involved in a dispensing error where my employer would not pay damages to the patient and the patient wanted to sue me personally, until the PDA intervened and eventually the employer’s indemnity insurance had to settle with the patient. One thing that the PDA has done in the past year that I feel proud of is getting recognition within LloydsPharmacy and developing a positive working relationship with the employer on pharmacist issues.”
