Updates from our Professional Officers

PDL members are kept notified via our regular email notices called Practice Alerts. We bring awareness to potential risks that could impede on the pharmacy profession. They are often sent reactively, from trends and incident reports conducted by PDL and other influencing bodies, in a bid to help our members avoid an incident. They can be national alerts or state-specific if connected to local legislation.

Practice Alerts

PDL keeps members informed through Practice Alerts, sharing timely updates on risks, legislation and incident trends to help prevent pharmacy-related issues nationally or state-specifically, supporting safe and compliant professional practice.
