Our Association [Back to Top]

The Pharmacists' Association of Newfoundland and Labrador (PANL) is a non-profit corporation established under the Corporations Act and mandated under provincial legislation.  The Pharmacists' Association is the professional association representing pharmacists in Newfoundland and Labrador and, as such, is responsible for promoting the profession of pharmacy and its members throughout the province.

A Council comprising of 9 members elected from the general membership, governs the Association.  As a means of providing accessible representation, the Province is divided into three (3) geographical zones and one (1) hospital zone.
