??“You can see that some of this connectedness is in my strengths and core values. Think about it for a minute: every single practitioner in the pharmacy profession, everyone who’s out there has been touched by one of us or by those who went before us or one of our schools, every single practitioner. That’s how much impact we have." At the 2024 AACP Annual Meeting, Dr. Anandi Law, AACP President, reminded us of the deep interconnectedness that defines the #pharmacy profession. Every interaction, every lesson passed down, shapes the future of #healthcare and elevates the profession’s collective impact. As we continue to navigate an ever-changing healthcare landscape, reflect on Dr. Law's impactful speech on the strength of shared connections, and their role in shaping the future of pharmacy.
