2.4 - Jill Cruikshank - Advice, Referral, Treatment - The ART of Pharmacy in Scotland

We chat to Jill Cruikshank - a community pharmacist in Edinburgh who works in Community Pharmacy Development in NHS Lothian. In addition Jill is a coach, trainer and speaker who runs her own consultancy Leading2Solutions. She is currently writing a book inspired by the development work she has done with early years pharmacists. We talk with Jill about ‘Pharmacy First’ - the Scottish Minor Ailments Scheme, writing a book and of course the recent ‘Friends’ reunion and the importance of hugs. Our micro-discussion focusses on the nature, severity and causes of medication incidents from an Australian community pharmacy incident reporting system: the QUMwatch study https://bpspubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bcp.14924. As with all our guests we ask Jill to pick her ‘Desert Island Drug’, a career defining anthem and a book that has influenced her work.
