Congratulations to Aidan Kassi from Amcal Kings Cross (NSW) for being named the state winner in this year’s Pharmacy Assistant of the Year Award (PATY) at the gala awards ceremony in Sydney recently. It’s been an incredible journey for Aidan to receive the honour in this prestigious award, having started as a pharmacy assistant six years ago. “Back then, I didn’t realise how much I’d enjoy it,” Aidan said. “I’ve always enjoyed helping people, and working in pharmacy has given me the chance to make a real difference.” He does admit, however, to being completely blown away by his PATY triumph. “It’s such a great feeling to be recognised for something I enjoy doing every day.” “We’ve got an amazing team at Amcal Kings Cross,” he said. “We’re fortunate to have an incredible team of pharmacists, intern pharmacists, pharmacy assistants, and a leadership team who are all deeply committed to providing the best service possible.” Congratulations Aidan on your fantastic achievement! #AmcalPharmacy #PharmacyAssistantNationalConference
