The Pharmacy Department was set up in 1967 to supply medications for the hospital's patients and was staffed by only 10 personnel. The services back then were provided by the Pharmacy Store, the Inpatient Dispensary and the creams or ointments compounding facility. Our Pharmacy Department now has over 100 staff and a larger number of services have been made available to our patients. To date, the department has experienced the guidance and leadership of eight successive Chief Pharmacists.
