This event will have a focus on the issues around health literacy and access to information. The societal influences on the ‘’infodemic’’ will be laid out, also the role of health care professionals, health workers and be vaccine hesitant people. We will consider all the policy elements that need to be addressed to overcome this, identifying tools to overcome these issues from a range of angles and the role pharmacy can play.

Difficulties arise when young pharmacists seek to explore new career paths. This event digital will provide the details on strategies for successfully switching from one area of practice to a different one of interest. 

Opioids have been successfully utilised in the management of pain. However, when not managed adequately, there is a risk they may lead to addiction and abuse among patients, with dramatic consequences in clinical and social terms. One consequence of this is the rise in cases of opioid-related overdose and deaths experienced in several countries. As medicine experts and an essential part of the healthcare team, pharmacists can support in addressing the overuse of opioids. This webinar aims to outline how pharmacists can optimise opioid use for improved patient outcomes.

Learning objectives
 At the end of the webinar, participants will:
1. Describe how pharmacists can enable the responsible use of opioid analgesics for chronic pain management
2. Identify opioid stewardship practices that can be adopted by pharmacists in the hospital settings
3. Explain the role that pharmacists can play in addressing the opioids overuse crisis
4. Recognize how pharmacists can contribute to opioid deprescribing and inappropriate pain relief

Pain is a common symptom of a range of conditions or situations, and can manifest and be experienced with different intensities, from mild discomfort to highly incapacitating. Supporting patients in adequately managing pain and using medicines to alleviate it in an optimal way is a common and important part of pharmacists’ daily practice.

A particular type of pain that often leads to consultations to pharmacists and the use of self-care medicines is headache. Contemporary lifestyles and ways of working – especially at such challenging times as we are experiencing in many parts of the world, with lockdowns and confinements – lead to increased stress, increased use of technology and screen time, and often a lack of good sleep, which all frequently lead to headaches.

Relieving headaches and regaining mental clarity are important for patient wellbeing and productivity, and pharmacists can play a role in advising on the most appropriate strategies and therapeutic approaches that are suitable for each patient.

Learning Objectives:
1. Provide an understanding of 21st century headaches and their impact on patient health and wellbeing.
2. Highlight patients’ expectations from pharmacists in addressing headaches.
3. Demonstrate the role that pharmacists can play in enabling self-care of headaches.

There is an evolving role for community pharmacists, not only in reactive respiratory illness, but also in supporting proactive individual and community respiratory wellness. However, what needs to change in terms of policy and regulation for these roles to become part of mainstream pharmacy practice?

learning objectives:
- Identify prevailing barriers limiting the deployment of services to reduce the impact of air pollution by community pharmacists.
- Describe facilitators and enablers that can influence air pollution service delivery by community pharmacists.
- Understand the policy and regulatory landscape that needs to be established to promote air pollution mitigation services by community pharmacists.
