How can pharmacists best support patients in their healthcare decisions? How can the profession be supported in dealing with workplace and commercial pressures while maintaining commitment to high quality patient care? These are just some of the issues that the Royal Pharmaceutical Society will address at its new conference in 2010.

This brand new event will have a practice and professional focus and will explore patient and professional decision making - how pharmacists, as professionals, can lead the way in maximising the optimal use of medicines, maintaining the best interests of patients and in making the best possible decision during times of workplace stress. This is an opportunity for pharmacists to develop leadership skills and to network and see how such networking has been developed at local levels across the countries.

The programme will be led by the conference Chair, Professor Marjorie Weiss, Professor of Pharmacy Practice & Medicine Use at the University of Bath, together with professional leads from the Royal Pharmaceutical Society.
