We create excitement from our members gets generated in just acknowledging that pharmacy is finally going to have a public-facing campaign and that we’re cultivating corporate partners, and individual pharmacists will have an opportunity to be spokespeople to get the message out to the consumer. We want to address the fact that pharmacists truly are the medication use experts. They care. They’re highly accessible. Pharmacists receive an amazing education. They are an important part of the healthcare team.”

Throughout my entire career, what’s been so obvious is that pharmacists’ actual contributions to patients and the healthcare system are so hard to communicate effectively, EPPA helps to bridge the gap in a community that devastatingly needs it.
The campaign’s main objectives are to increase awareness and understanding of the pharmacy profession among the general population and to increase positive attitudes toward pharmacy. DONATE TODAY!
Pharmacists Help People Live Healthier, Better Lives.
EPPA promote the message that pharmacists are fully qualified, capable and willing to positively impact patients’ health.They are accessible, knowledgeable and highly educated. They are there to ensure the best solutions and they are a critical part of the healthcare team. These are some of the key messages that EPPA hopes to spread.
Great teams representing the El Paso community! We get to network with our colleagues, share our pharmacy practice experiences, and find the latest local updates!
This is an organization that operates at its fullest potential by allowing people to do their best work. It’s a association where individual differences are nurtured; information is not suppressed or spun; the team adds value to members and community, the organization stands for something meaningful; the work itself is intrinsically rewarding!
