The interns program assists the development of professional skills and competencies in all aspects of pharmacy. The program includes regular tutorial sessions run for all interns, to ensure that key clinical and practical topics are covered over the year.

Intern pharmacists are rotated to all areas of pharmacy service, working closely with our experienced pharmacists. Extensive assistance is available for both the written and oral registration exams.

As part of the pharmacy team, each Intern is allocated a vital role as a member of the Adverse Drug Reaction or Medication Safety committee.
