Organise Night Shifts for pharmacies in Malta and Gozo

Organise Night Shifts for pharmacies in Malta and Gozo

The Issue

What do you when it's 1AM and your child is complaining because he/she is in pain and you go to the hospital to be told give them painkillers as the pharmacies are closed until tomorrow morning.

An adult may wait, a child no! And this is not ok. 

We call upon the Prime Minister, the Minister of Health and the Honourable Members of the Maltese Parliament to enforce a night shift 365 days a year to pharmacies based on the rotation of these.

We believe that AT LEAST one pharmacy in Malta and one in Gozo should be available at night.

The year is 2018, access to healthcare shouldn't be that difficult at night!
