World Pharmacist Day; let's Join the Campaign; we are Special!

The International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP) is the worldwide body representing more than 4 million pharmacists and pharmaceutical scientists. FIP annually celebrates “World Pharmacist Day” with the objective to empower pharmacists and support the development of the pharmacy profession by advancing pharmacy globally.

This year’s World Pharmacists Day campaign: “Pharmacy: Always trusted for your health” is an opportunity for the  Pharmacy Department of  Hospitals as well as Pharmaceutical Industries & others to show appreciation for the trust placed in the profession and increase awareness of this trust and pharmacists’ vital role in improving health, says FIP.



As a career, Doctor of Pharmacy is one of the noble health care professional degrees with the aim to produce highly competent and knowledgeable, well trained, skilled, critical thinker and proficient professionals called Pharmacist. Pharmacists are healthcare professionals who specialize in the right way to use, store, preserve, and provide medicine. Pharmacists work with other health care professionals to maximize health outcomes. Numerous studies have proven that the presence of a pharmacist on hospital rounds as a full member of the patient care team has been shown to prevent medication errors and reduce costs. 

Dr. Ziauddin Group of Hospitals is a high-standard tertiary care unit that has one of the greatest missions to provide a learning environment where a Pharmacist can acquire ample amount knowledge and can refine his/her clinical skills which not only enhances professional competency but also improves patient health outcomes.

Pharmacists also have enlightened their active role in the COVID’19 pandemic by providing pharmaceutical care to isolated patients and community services as frontline healthcare workers.

Dr Ziauddin Hospital teaches prevention and control of Hospital acquired Infections through Cleaning, Disinfection & Sterilization

Surgical procedures and invasive medical procedures such as Endoscopy involve contact by a medical device or surgical instrument with a patient’s sterile tissue or mucous membranes. A major risk of all such procedures is the introduction of pathogens that can lead to infection. Failure to properly disinfect or sterilize equipment can increase transmission risk of blood borne infections (e.g., hepatitis B virus) and environmental pathogens (e.g., Pseudomonas aeruginosa). Disinfection and sterilization are essential for ensuring that medical and surgical instruments do not transmit infectious pathogens to patients. Sterilization of all patient-care items is not necessary. Health care facilities identify primarily on the basis of the items' intended use, whether cleaning, disinfection, or sterilization is indicated. Considering this, the Department of Infection Prevention and control, Dr Ziauddin Hospital  organized a session on Prevention and Control of Hospital acquired Infectio...

Maternal and newborn health

  Newborns and mothers are still dying in awful numbers many a times from preventable causes.   It is still sad to see that newborns and mothers – including adolescent mothers – are still dying in inadmissibly large numbers – mostly from avoidable or treatable causes, such as infectious diseases and complications during pregnancy or childbirth.  Poorly matched access to reasonable, high-quality health care and services hinders many countries from improving maternal and newborn survival and reducing stillbirths. A significant proportion of maternal and newborn deaths occurs in settings of conflict or  dislodgment . However, in current times, the world has seen noteworthy declines in infant and maternal mortality rates. But women and babies still die in confounding numbers before, during and after childbirth. Many of these deaths can be stopped with better-quality health care. Worldwide, more preventable deaths – an estimated 8 million – occur from poor-quality...

Surviving the choir of darkness

During the summer clinical of 2013, I met a Soul – A Patient – A Warrior– A Survivor, who taught me it is never too late to embrace life. In July of 2012, she felt an oversized lump in her right breast on a stunning Sunday morning while celebrating her only son's sixth birthday. She never went into detail about the medical predicament she found herself in as a result of that lump, preferring to focus on what it did to her life and how she became stronger, happier, and a better person as a result. She does, however, want us to know that she had a very terrible experience enduring chemo and radiotherapy treatments, as well as having surgery to remove both of her breasts. She never questioned herself - "why did it happen to me?" – from the minute she was told she had cancer. She although instinctively recognized that this was a sign. It's not a disaster, nor is it a death sentence, but it's a sign. And if she was sensitive enough, patient enough, and trusted ...
