New Pharma

Buying a pharmacy is a big step, whatever path you use to enter pharmacy ownership. Taking careful and considered steps in preparing to enter pharmacy ownership is vital.

This resource, developed by the Pharmacy Guild of Australia, is an innovative toolset to help potential pharmacy owners assess if they are ready to purchase and successfully operate a pharmacy.

Designed exclusively for potential pharmacy purchasers by industry experts and successful owners, New Pharma will assess each potential pharmacy owner against a pre-defined "best practice" across all the necessary areas of consideration in taking the big step of becoming a pharmacy owner.

Following a readiness assessment, the planning capabilities and resources of New Pharma will provide potential pharmacy owners with an "action oriented" plan that supports them as they use provided recommended actions, or create their own tasks, over a 90-day period to move them closer to becoming a successful pharmacy owner.

Based on a proven methodology New Pharma will help identify your knowledge and skills gaps, and help you close these gaps. New Pharma provides support services from a wide network of business advisors and specialist professionals to support your successful transition to pharmacy ownership.
