UBC’s Pharmacist Awareness Month 2020 (PAM) is an annual national campaign during March that promotes the changing profession of pharmacy and the vital role that pharmacists play in the health care system. This month serves not only to recognize the profession of pharmacy but to also give the public and UBC students the opportunity to better understand the profession and how pharmacists serve our communities.
Each year several events are held to achieve this cause, one of which is the Pharmacy Fair that is held at the heart of campus in the UBC Nest. PAM gives students of all backgrounds the opportunity to learn more about the profession, as well as to gain insight into this aspect of healthcare.
