A busy waiting area. Bright lights. Multiple questions. Information delivered quickly.

For some patients, these are routine parts of accessing healthcare. For neurodivergent people, they can create barriers to feeling comfortable, understood and supported.

SpectrumRx: Neurodiversity Foundation Training for Pharmacy Practice helps pharmacists, pharmacy assistants, interns and students better understand the experiences and needs of neurodivergent people.

Through 10 CPD-accredited online modules, you'll gain practical strategies to:

✅ reduce stigma
✅ recognise communication and sensory needs
✅ deliver more personalised, person-centred care.

Because when we better understand how patients experience healthcare, we're better equipped to make that experience work for them.

Supporting pharmacists. Strengthening the profession.

Pharmacy practice continues to evolve.

As the national peak body for pharmacists, hashtag is here for you, listening to what matters, leading the profession forward and supporting you through every stage of professional practice.

We have listened to member feedback. That is why our national events are evolving to be more targeted, practice-focused and relevant.

PSA National Events will continue to bring the profession together through the PSA National Conference and Consultant Pharmacist Conference. In 2027, we are excited to introduce the new national Practice-Focused Symposium Series. 🎉

Designed around the changing needs of the profession, the series will support pharmacists across different areas of practice, with targeted education aligned to workforce priorities.

You will have the opportunity to explore relevant topics in greater depth while connecting with colleagues working in similar areas.

▪️ More focused education.
▪️ More meaningful connections.
▪️ More value for your practice.

Because when pharmacists come together to learn, connect and share their experiences, we strengthen the profession together.
