Pharma Career Sans Authority

#PharmaCareerSansAuthority 

There is nothing like Pharma career!

1 A professional carrer that deals with sick needs legal authorization, legal empowerment with defined eligibility criteria cannot be called a healthCare professional.

2. High-sounding themes, glossy brochures, inaugural lamps, keynote speeches…But without supportive and empowering Act and Rules, they are like screen play.

3. Pharmacy events often speak about clinical excellence, patient-centric care, expanded roles, pharmacovigilance leadership, antimicrobial stewardship, and healthcare innovation. 
- The vision is impressive. The intent is inspiring. Yet, if the legal framework does not clearly authorize, protect, and mandate these roles — the enthusiasm remains confined to conference halls.

4. A profession that deals with medicines and patients cannot grow on motivation and degrees. 

It grows on:
πŸ‘‰ Clear statutory scope of practice 
πŸ‘‰ Defined clinical authority
πŸ‘‰ Mandatory pharmacist presence
πŸ‘‰ Enforceable standards
πŸ‘‰ Protection against encroachment
πŸ‘‰ Accountability backed by law.

Without that, events risk becoming ceremonial rituals
  — intellectual celebrations disconnected from ground reality.

In my own experience as a hospital pharmacist, I know this well: 

πŸ‘‰ Unless the Act empowers the pharmacist to intervene, document, prescribe within scope, or be structurally integrated into care pathways, even the most brilliant clinical discussions remain aspirational.
πŸ‘‰ Professional growth is not built by slogans.
πŸ‘‰ It is built by legislation, enforcement, and institutional will.

Events can ignite thought.
But only strong, supportive rules can institutionalize change.

Otherwise, we are only applauding potential 
— without creating power.😒
