Ever wondered what it’s like to be an IPSF Executive? To be part of the IPSF Team?

Recently I had the opportunity to attend Executive Meeting 2 and to finally come face to face with the team. All the way from Sydney, Australia, half-way around the world, to the IPSF Headquarters in The Hague, The Netherlands. Having worked with everyone for months, communicating through Skype and spread across the globe, it was a wonderful feeling to finally be there together as a group of young pharmacists working to further IPSF. Executive Meeting 2 is spread over a week, consisting of meetings to report on previous proj-ects, address issues on current ones and to plan for the future. As tedious and boring as that may sound, as an Executive member, seeing everything come to fruition was heartwarming, to see that IPSF was accomplishing so much, and felt I proud to be part of such an organisation. It was by no means perfect, there were problems and points to be argued, but together as a team, we are able to engage in discussions to solve them. IPSF is a family, we support each other, learn from each other and have fun together. Some key moments for myself during the Executive Meeting were go-

ing through the IPSF archives and history, having the chance to meet the FIP team, and the long discussions we had on Ethics, IPSF Memberships and Student Exchange for example. However it wasn’t without some fun as well, a whole team crammed into the IPSF Flat, we shared stories, had drinks, took to the streets one night, and even visited Amsterdam. Life as an IPSF Executive requires time and effort, it is challenging but worthwhile, and it will put you into a position to see new perspectives, to improve upon yourself and to make a difference.

Life as an IPSF Executive is an incredible experi-ence, made even more so by the wonderful IPSF family we are all in.

APRO Attended APS-Japan Annual Congress for the first timeJanet Mirazei - Secretary APS-Japan Annual Congress @ Kyoto, Japan I didn’t really know what to expect when I first walked into the room with all the executives’ eyes on us. The pressure was definitely on. The week prior to this mo-ment, Dora and myself had been preparing our presen-tations on the IPSF Asia Pacific Regional Office that we were going to present at the APS-Japan Annual Con-gress, but all the while doing it, I was nervous about how it was going to turn out and I kept questioning myself as to whether I had done enough. Is my presentation too informal? Have I covered enough? Will they even be interested in what I have to say?

But when I walked in and realised they were aware of our presence, I was surprised to see most of them jump up from their seats and run over to greet us. I knew that Dora, since she was the immediate past Chairperson of the Asia Pacific Regional Office, had met many of them before so it was no surprise that she was hugging ev-eryone and busy catching up with each person. What did surprise me, on the other hand, was how welcoming they were towards me. I didn’t know a single person in the room and knowing I was going to be meeting the executives, I expected everyone to formally introduce themselves and then go back to their work. But instead I was welcome to a room where everyone mentioned a bit about themselves and then ask questions about what I did and where I came from. Everyone in the room was talking and laughing and sharing food; it was a very relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere.

After our presentations were done, five of the junior members had volunteered to spend the day with Dora and I to go sightseeing around Kyoto. Through-out the rest of the day, while we visited many famous attractions such as Kinkaku-ji and Togetsukyo bridge, we talked about a lot of things and became really close with one another. After we had worn ourselves out from all the walking we had done, and once the sun had set, it was time for us to make our way to the city centre to go to the executives’ welcoming, other-wise known as drinking, party. It was the birthday of one of the members, Akiko, and so we had bought a cake and planned a surprise for her as well. We spent the entire night chatting with each other, eating amazing food and overall, having a really great time.

I certainly didn’t know what to expect on my first day there, but with all the fond memories that I now have, it definitely turned out to be a day I would not forget.

All behind the scenes – The preparation for an amazing APPSBrian Wong - Regional Media and Publication OfficerAPRO Face-to-face pre-symposium meeting @ Pattaya, Thailand The APRO Regional Working Group (RWG) Face-to-face Pre-Symposium meeting was held from 24th to 26th April in Thailand. This is my first term in RWG and I do not know what to expect in this meeting. Things were nothing like what I expected, even after reading the agenda before attending. It was better and more exciting than I could have imagined!

12 hours of continuous meetings, riding a motorcycle through the busy-as streets, meeting the recep-tion committee, lots to talk about.

Arriving in Bangkok after 18 hours of travelling from Dunedin, New Zealand, the first thing to hit me was the heat, coming from 10 to 30 degrees was a surprisingly nice change. The second thing was the tiredness. Howev-er there was no time for rest, as my job started immedi-ately after I arrived, with the PSUT executive committee as well as my RWG waiting for me join them for the lovely greeting dinner.

A good night’s sleep before business meetings isn’t al-ways the case. After 28 hours awake followed by 4 hours sleep, we began our day One 12 hour continuous meet-ing. We started with a 100 page agenda and managed to

cover the majority of it by the end of the day, before we had met with the reception committee. Many problems arose, which was discouraging at first, but working together as a team to figure out a solution was always exciting. At the end of the day, Mark, the APPS chairperson took us to a beachside restaurant for dinner. The dinner was absolutely beautiful, and tasted even better after such a long hardworking day. Work hard, play hard.

If you have been to APPS Malaysia, and believe that the 5-star hotel was one of the best APPS accommo-dation ever, I will guarantee that you will have a new answer after this year. Day Two field trip was amaz-ing. The hotel was absolutely incredible both with its facilities, as well as the beach just seconds away. More importantly most symposia and workshops will be held in the hotel, meaning more rest time, and even more beach and pool time!

I really enjoyed the evening spent with all the recep-tion committee members. They showed how well prepared they were as well as how passionate they were about this APPS. They were exciting to talk to and the night went so quickly. I am really looking forward to seeing them all again this August. Again work hard play hard, we spent our night with some of

them at the beach chatting, playing games, and getting to know each other better. Wonderful time and best night of the trip!!!

Meetings finished on Sunday as Mian, Janet and Kimmy needed to leave. Dora and I stayed for another night at Mark’s. It is the first time of my life experiencing how close to death you come by riding on a motorcycle speed-ing through the busy traffic in Thailand, cars and bikes are so close that you can touch them by causally swinging your arms, which I was too scared to do as I had to keep both of my hands holding tightly onto my seat. This may be very normal in South-Asia countries, but definitely not in New Zealand!! And not too sure if I will try it again…

Overall, it is an amazing experience being in the RWG to be able to see everything that goes on behind the scenes for an APPS, the chance to meet and work with students studying same degree around the world as well as the chance of a wee break from my busy school life in a very cold town. If that sounds like something you would like to do, apply to be in the RWG next term!!! It is all worth it!

New Zealand: Medicines Clinic: “Do you know what your medicines do and how they help you?” - NZAPS-O University of Otago School of Pharmacy Medicine Clinic Sessions - Bringing the pharmacy to patientsThere are many different contexts in which a pharmacist can interact with a patient; from medicines history taken in the hospital to patient coun-selling in a community pharmacy. Although there may be many op-portunities between the patient and health professional, more often than not patients are not given the op-portunity to go into an environment where they are in control of the con-versation. This is in regards to what is specifically discussed, including giv-ing them sufficient time to familiarise themselves with their medicines or think about questions they may have about them. The School of Pharmacy Medicine Clinics allow for this by offering peo-ple in the community the opportuni-ty to come and talk to a pharmacist about their medicines without an appointment. These clinics are ad-vertised in the local paper with “Un-derstanding your medicines”. Usually these are held in community centres, churches and may even be in rest homes, allowing increased access to those unable to conveniently come to a pharmacist. They are open to all

people in the community. As there are no time limits in these sessions, the patient can consult the pharmacist regarding their medicines and any health-related queries they may have. These also allow for patients to find out whether they need to fol-low up with their general practitioner, community pharmacist, nurse or care-giver regarding any issues dis-cussed during the session.

The overall set-up of the clinic is to ensure the patient leaves well-in-formed and their queries have been answered. It has been observed that patients who attend these clinics tend to be more receptive to the information and feedback they received. The School of Pharmacy, University of Otago, sees the potential in allowing students to enhance their communi-cation and health literary skills these clinics can offer, thereby providing them with the opportunity to attend

these clinics. From talking with one of the coordinators of these clinics, a few of the benefits they wish to offer students through these clinics in-cludes helping ‘students understand what people really want to know about their medicines, what their understanding is of their medicines as part of their health care, and what types of things cause concern for them’

For students to ‘tailor their commu-nication style’ to accommodate for the patients’ understanding, practice rewording explanations, and build confidence. For the most part, it is another opportunity for students to improve their patient interaction skills by partaking in interviews, as well as, answering patients’ questions with staff assistance when needed. I attended one of the first clinics this year which was held at the Frances Hodgkins Retirement Village, Kew, Dunedin, New Zealand. I volun-teered my services together with

four fourth-year students. The three pharmacists present were Profession-al Practise Fellows from the School of Pharmacy and another was from the New Zealand Formulary. Each of us were paired up with a staff member. Over the 3 hour-clinic session, each pair spoke to at least 4 patients. Upon review, we concluded that conversa-tions with patients varied immensely. This was not only due to the topics being raised or the focuses of the con-versation, but the amount of under-standing the patients had about their medicines, health conditions, current health and mental state, interest in talking and interesting in learning more. From talking to the patients we were able to get a background of their life and medical knowledge.

This insight assisted us in understanding their knowledge of medi-cines, health, disease, and lifestyle, allowing us to customise our way of communicating with them.

The patient’s interest with the topic at hand was also obvious upon start-

ing each conversation based on their tone of voice, body language, respon-siveness and enthusiasm. Additionally, it was very interesting seeing how patients would react if they had an uninformed preconcep-tion of their medicines and health issues, and patients’ ability to take up new knowledge in general. The majority of them wanted to learn and were accepting of this new knowl-edge. With those who were not so willing to accept these new concepts, we had to adjust our communication style. When discussing this with my preceptor, she shared her experience of past encounters with many pa-tients who were unwilling to accept their knowledge was incorrect, and had developed ways or resolving this. This type of passing on of knowledge is crucial and in some instances can only be learnt through experience outside of the classroom.

This broadened my knowledge on how to effectively communi-cate health issues and medicines information to enhance the patient’s health literacy.

As these clinics are still in their infan-cy they are not integrated into the Bachelor of Pharmacy curriculum as student placements until further trials are conclusive. Feedback from students who have attended clinics has been positive and the outlook for these clinics is promising. Overall, this has been an enriching experience which has allowed my-self and those who attended, some first-hand experience around health literacy in the community. With many more opportunities throughout the year on offer, I am confident many students will be enthusiastic about participating in this programme. Information on these clinics can be obtained from the School of Pharma-cy’s website (http://www.pharmacy.otago.ac.nz/clinics). Naomi Lee, NZAPS-OEducational Rep

Indonesia: Save the Passive Smokers - HMF ITB Indonesia Passive Smoker Protection Program in Bandung Insti-tute of Technology

Cigarettes, one of the major trade commodities in Indonesia, have spread massively and are consumed by teenagers and elders. It is a com-mon thing to find someone smoking in public areas as well as campus areas. If there’s no prohibition that regulates smoking in campus areas, students can smoke freely wher-ever they are. This happens in a lot of universities, including Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB). Being the only faculty related to health in ITB, pharmacy students, with their student board association, HMF ‘Ars Praeparandi’, initiated “Passive Smok-er Protection Program” as a response to solve this problem. The aim of this program is not to stop active smok-

ers from smoking, but it protects pas-sive smokers and ensures the rights of either active or passive smokers. Active smokers have the right to smoke and passive smokers have the right to be protected from smoke caused by ciga-rettes.

In spite of being permitted to smoke anywhere on campus, smokers are en-couraged smoke in allocated smoking areas. Unfortunately, even if there are 6 smoking areas, several smokers ignore the signs and smoke freely. Based on a survey, one in 5 ITB students admit-ted to being an active smoker. Smoke caused by cigarette makes passive smokers feel uncomfortable. Twen-ty-five percent of total smoke yielded

from cigarettes gets into through respi-ratory tract of the smoker and the re-maining spreads in the air, highly risky for other people around.

Passive Smoker Protection Program has volunteers to do its daily activtes. Syn-ergizing with the Bandung (local gov-ernment) daily program, “Selasa tanpa rokok” (Tuesday without cigarettes), it has #SP3, “Selasa Peduli Perokok Pas-if”. Pharmacy students from HMF ‘Ars Praeparandi’ collaborate with other volunteers to make a campaign for ITB students every Tuesday. Once a week, they post an online poster campaign on social media or give a brief explana-tion about smoking.

The problem is that fifty percent of passive smokers are not brave enough to say that they are against 2nd hand-smoking (passive). However, 75% of active smokers are willing to stay away from passive smokers if they are asked to. Hopefully, the campaign can encourage passive smokers to be brave enough to say that they object to the smoke to the active smokers. “There are three groups of passive smokers; they who be brave to act, they who be brave to say, and they who be brave to share.”, said Novina Yuniarti as the Chairman of Passive Smoker Protection Program.

Why are food safety and personal hygiene important?Presented by APRO Regional Projects Officer and subcommittee

Unsafe food is the contaminated food which can cause diseases ranged from diarrhea, malnutrition, serious infection to cancers. The main causes of foodborne illness are bacteria, viruses, parasites, and chemicals. There are some recent cases of foodborne disease been reported, such as cucumber infected with Escherichia coli, the contamination of Listeria monocytogenes in Gala and Granny Smith apples and the Hepatitis A infections from the infected frozen berries. The problem of foodborne diseases has devel-oped worldwide.

WHO has established Five Keys to safer food as a main content in “SAFETY FOOD” campaign of this World Health Day 2015. The keys include (1) Keep clean (2) Separate raw and cooked food (3) Well cooked food (4) Keep food at safe temperatures (5) Use safe water and raw materials. More information: http://www.who.int/campaigns/world-health-day/2015/event/en/

This campaign aims to encourage consumers to ensure the food they eat are safe and the government to raise an awareness through a public campaign. Government needs to set safety of food as top pri-ority; setting up the policy to ensure safety of food

productions, transportations, raw materials, and also the import or export of food. More information: http://www.who.int/campaigns/world-health-day/2015/whd-tool-kit-en.pdf?ua=1 Salmonella, Campylobacter, and Enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli are the common foodborne pathogens. You can contact salmonellosis by consuming raw and undercooked eggs, undercooked poultry and meat, contaminated raw fruits and vegetables (such as sprouts and melons), as well as unpasteurized milk and other dairy products. Campylobacter can be found on raw meat and poultry as well as the E.coli. The other bacteria are Listeria; found in unpasteurized dairy product and ready-to-eat food, Staphylococcus aureus; mostly come in contact with the hands without additional cooking, and Vibrio; mainly found in seafood and contaminated water. Moreover, Norovirus, parasites and some chemicals and toxins also been reported as the cause of foodborne diseases. More information: http://who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs399/en/

Personal hygiene is the key to the prevention and con-tainment of foodborne. Practicing good hand hygiene and cooking in hygiene are important as it can help pre-vent the spread of pathogens on the skin of the contami-

nated food and likewise pathogens contained within the uncooked food being ingested. It is important to wear sanitary gloves, hats and clothes when touching food ingredients for food hygiene. Washing cooking equipments clearly is helpful to prevent cross contamination.

If both, the cook and the people who eat try to keep cleanliness, the possibility of food poison will get much lower.

There are some tips provided to avoid the contaminant: (1) Wash/ CleanWash hands with soap and water, do not prepare or serve food if you have a nose or eye infection or if you have wounds or skin infections on your hands or wrists.Wash raw fruit and vegetables before peeling, cutting or eating.Avoid unpasteurized dairy products and raw/uncooked foods.Wash reusable grocery totes regularly.

(2) SeparateUse separate cutting boards and different containers or utensils for raw and cooked food when handling to prevent cross-contamination.

(3) CookCook all food to proper temperatures, above a temperature of 140°F. Leftovers should be reheated before serving to an internal temperature of 165°F or higher.

(4) RefrigerateRefrigerate food to 40°F or below after cooking and maintain a clean refrigerator. Practice leftover safety by dividing roasts and stews into smaller quantities when refrigerating for faster cooling.
