Safe practice or silent strain? Rethinking pharmacist wellbeing

28 May 2026

Pharmacist burnout is often framed as an individual resilience issue, ignoring that system failures are hiding in plain sight. This webinar explores the growing strain across the pharmacy workforce and why well-being can no longer be treated as a personal responsibility alone. From structural pressures and inequities to the long-term impact on patient care and workforce sustainability, we unpack the realities shaping the profession today. Through sector insights, practical strategies, and lived experience, this session will challenge assumptions, surface uncomfortable truths, and offer a clearer path toward safer, more sustainable practice.
