MyPSA World Pharmacists Day
September 21 @ 10:00 AM - October 2 @ 6:30 PM
MyPSA World Pharmacists Day 2024 highlights the critical role that pharmacists play in healthcare, educating the public about the various services and expertise they provide. This year we are bringing in the project of My Little Pharmacist in collaboration with Kiddypedia.
Kiddypedia is an innovative educational company dedicated to sparking children’s curiosity through immersive learning experiences. By transforming encyclopedia knowledge into interactive events, tours, and living classrooms, they create engaging and memorable educational adventures. Kiddypedia’s parenting trips offer families enriching experiences by exploring different countries, embracing cultural diversity, and participating in hands-on activities. They also turn various venues like museums and restaurants into vibrant educational spaces, providing children with dynamic and practical learning environments. Their team of passionate educators and event planners ensures that learning is exciting and engaging for both children and parents.
Through the My Little Pharmacist project, young children will gain a deeper understanding of the pharmacist’s role by visiting various stations and participating in interactive activities. This hands-on experience will not only educate them about the responsibilities of a pharmacist but also spark their interest in the healthcare field. By engaging with practical tasks, children will develop a foundational knowledge of pharmacy practices, learn the importance of proper medication usage, and appreciate the pharmacist’s contribution to community health. This immersive approach ensures that learning is both enjoyable and impactful, encouraging a lasting interest in the pharmaceutical profession.
MyPSA World Pharmacists Day 2024 can be a platform for promoting public health initiatives, such as medication safety, and the proper use of medications, leading to better health outcomes through the booth setup by the relevant pharmaceutical companies. Bringing together pharmacists, healthcare professionals, and stakeholders fosters collaboration and the sharing of best practices, which can lead to improved healthcare systems. Celebrating World Pharmacists Day helps in advocating for the profession, gaining recognition from policymakers, and potentially influencing healthcare policies to better support pharmacists. Addressing issues such as proper medication disposal, patient adherence to treatment plans, and access to pharmaceutical care in underserved areas can be a focus, leading to tangible improvements in healthcare delivery. Moreover, it engages the community, building trust and strengthening the relationship between pharmacists and the public, ultimately enhancing patient care and health literacy.
