Andrew Cording

Director of Pharmacy

St. Vincent's Hospital, Australia

I’m very interested in how IT and clinical informatics can be used to improve the hospital and particularly the pharmacy environment.

Management in pharmacy became my focus after I worked as a pharmacist in various roles, including dispensary manager, quality use of medicines and home pharmacy.

What I like about this job is the variety. It mainly involves the management side of pharmacy, such as budgets, quality, human resources, risk and safety, but still allows me to continue my clinical work.
