t has also raised my awareness of the importance of inter-profession collaboration, and I am thankful that I could get in touch with these concepts earlier before getting into the workplace.

Effective interprofessional collaboration can help us to improve the quality and comprehensiveness of care. I hope that I can work effectively as a team with other professionals in the future. ​

TAI Ting Fong,

The discussion in PHAR2018 have undeniably extended my perception on the roles and responsibilities of each profession and expanded my insights in what additional collective work could be done to help our clients.

CHAN Yu Hin,
Pharmacy Student

I am starting to appreciate interprofessional collaboration more, when looking into future patient cases, I reckon I would place interprofessional collaboration in a higher priority than mere drug treatments.
