Guild Podcast Ep. 9: Rural Pharmacy with Lucy Walker

Across Australia, there are 425 local communities that have just a single pharmacy in their town.

In these situations in particular, pharmacies are often the most important local hub for healthcare, community services and general support for the local population, particularly for the elderly and unwell.

In this episode, Lucy Walker, pharmacist proprietor of Lucy Walker Chemmart Goondiwindi and winner of the 2017 Guild Pharmacy of the Year award, talks about what attracted her to a rural lifestyle, the pivotal role she and the pharmacy plays in the community and the unique challenges and benefits of owning a pharmacy in a rural location.
