9th APPS Korea,finally~

It's been such a long drag since the last post.

Sorry my dear PharmRocks reader, hope you don't mind.

So here the post about this year 9th APPS in Seoul, Korea.

10 reps was sent by PharmNotts to attend this annual event!

Woohoo~

Q: What's about APPS Korea that leave a deep impression on you?

A: Overall, Korea is really an advanced country. I really like the effective transportation in Korea. As well as the weather. During the event, we learnt a lot on patients counseling and the pharmacy organisation in Korea such as the IPSF and APRO in Korea.

For your info, the pharmacists in Korea have the dispensing rights.

Q: What are the highlights of the entire event?

A: During the regional meeting, the reps from each country including MyPSA presented their activity throughout the year and Koh Kai Yee (currently a year 3 student in Nottingham, UK now) was chosen as the best participant in the patient's counsel conference.
