Beyond the prescription: Managing complex patient care amidst the hurdles

Join us as we unpack a case involving a patient with cryptococcal meningitis and poorly controlled type 2 diabetes, where the challenges go far beyond the medication chart.

In this interactive case study, you’ll explore:

  • The clinical complexity of managing antifungal therapy alongside glycaemic control
  • The logistical roadblocks in delivering care across hospital and remote communities
  • The decision-making pressure faced by early career pharmacists when systems fail to align
  • And how you, even early in your career, can make a critical difference in multidisciplinary care.

Whether you’re on the wards, in the dispensary, or stepping into a clinical role—this case will test your knowledge, stretch your thinking, and sharpen your readiness for the unexpected.

This workshop will address the following learning objectives:

  • Analyse the therapeutic challenges of managing patients with complex comorbidities
  • Develop solutions to overcome healthcare system barriers and deliver patient care in rural and remote settings
  • Apply clinical reasoning to navigate competing priorities and when systems mis-align
  • Develop strategies to leverage pharmacist expertise in multidisciplinary teams to enhance patient outcomes
