World Pharmacist Day 2021 is celebrated today, September 25. It was on this day International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP) was established in 1912. The day has been set apart to celebrate and perceive the job drug specialists play. The World Pharmacist Day topic 2021 is “Pharmacy: Always Trusted For Your Health”. Global Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP) set up World Pharmacist Day. FIP is the worldwide organization of public relations of pharmacists and pharmaceutical scientists.
The goal of World Pharmacists Day is to stimulate events that promote and advocate for the pharmacist’s role in promoting health in every corner of the world. Pharmacists are responsible for ensuring that people get the most out of their medications. They use their experience, knowledge, and skill to make the (medical) world a better place for everyone. Furthermore, they provide individuals with access to medications, instruct them on how to use them appropriately, and do a variety of other things.
THEME
The topic for this year is “Pharmacy: Always Trusted for Your Health.” The reason behind this theme, according to FIP, is that they believe trust is an essential component of all human interactions and a key component of social capital and is crucial in health care. There is a substantial relationship between trust in healthcare providers and patient health outcomes. Patients with more confidence in their healthcare practitioners reported better satisfaction with treatment, more positive health behaviors and fewer symptoms, and an enhanced quality of life across a variety of clinical settings.
HISTORY
World Pharmacist Day was made by the International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP) Council at the World Congress of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences in Istanbul, Turkey in 2009. September 25 is picked as World Pharmacist Day because on this date FIP appeared in 1912.
