About this episode
In this special episode of Pharmacist Diaries, recorded live during World Antimicrobial Resistance Awareness Week, I welcome back Claire Brandish, a distinguished leader in antimicrobial stewardship and global health.
Claire Brandish currently works as the Lead Anti-Infectives pharmacist at Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust and Senior Antimicrobial Resistance Technical Advisor for the Commonwealth Pharmacist Association. In her role, she supports the Fleming funded Commonwealth Partnerships for Antimicrobial Stewardship Scheme (CwPAMS). As a Chief Pharmaceutical Officer's Global Health Fellow, Claire has successfully delivered three CwPAMS projects between the NHS and health-partners in the UK and Uganda.
Named a "Woman to Watch" in 2021 by the Pharmaceutical Journal, Claire works as an independent prescriber and actively participates in regular antimicrobial stewardship ward rounds as part of the multidisciplinary team.
