Pharmacists provide care with pharmacist-provided care

Lately I've seen the following header on emails that I have received from the APhA regarding the push for provider status. Maybe you have seen it as well. 






Maybe you've thought to yourself, "I think I've seen that phrase before...Pharmacists Provide Care." 


That's because you saw it here first...two years ago.




I'm kicking myself in the rear end for not trademarking or copyrighting the phrase.

I feel a little bit hurt that the APhA has stolen taken my phrase.  




Maybe they will want to make amends by floating a free multi-year membership or a free trip to the annual convention my way.

I’ve worked with many pharmacists and technicians over the years. The vast majority of them have been hard working and dedicated employees. They care about their job and they care about the people they serve. In fact, they might care a little too much.

How many of you have stayed late or come in early to get work done? It can seem like we are all playing an endless game of catch up. And there is a tendency by many to simply put in extra time off the clock to help keep things calm.

Great original post on PPC.
You do deserve credit for the phrase.
If it's any consolation, it seems that you sold them on the concept of PPC!
Well done.
