HIGH IMPACT CHANGES:
The Department of Health has previously identified a number of High Impact Changes that highlight practical measures that can be implemented at local level.
This is more than a policy briefing; it is a call to action for you to:

- Maintain and develop your relationships with community pharmacy to ensure a smooth transition of health and wellbeing services into the new public health landscape.
