I had the opportunity to meet Lucinda Kenny from Capital Chemist Calwell this week to recognise her achievement as the 2019 Pharmacy Guild Intern of the Year.

The national award supports the next generation of pharmacists and owners to build a strong foundation for their professional careers.

Lucinda has been recognised by the Guild for her outstanding local community awareness and engagement.

She displayed a commitment to collaborative patient care and a strong vision for both career goals to become a dermatology advanced practice pharmacist.

On accepting the award, Lucinda acknowledged that it was humbling to be recognised in the profession during such arduous times, where pharmacists, pharmacy assistants and interns have been working tirelessly during the coronavirus pandemic. 

Lucinda is fortunate to have the support of her team at the Capital Chemist Group who are a wonderful local employer and pillar in our community.
