Pharmacists and Pharmacy Technicians in Newfoundland and Labrador are a large group of highly skilled individuals focused on patient safety and are committed to the advancement of the profession.
Each year, the Newfoundland and Labrador Pharmacy Board recognizes individual registrants for their achievements and outstanding dedication and contribution to the profession.
The Emerald Achievement Award highlights individual registrants with longstanding service to the profession. Emerald Achievement Award winners have been registered with the board and contributing to the provincial health system for 35 years.
The Patient Safety Award recognizes an individual registrant, a group of registrants, an interdisciplinary group, or a pharmacy organization for their contribution to improving patient safety.
