Abstract
From 2000 to 2025, the profession of pharmacy expanded into vaccinations, point-of-care testing, and chronic disease prevention and management. In the next 25 years, pharmacy will continue to advance in new ways. This paper focuses on expanded roles of community and ambulatory care pharmacy to more directly improve public health. Built around the ten essential services of public health, this paper calls upon the profession of pharmacy to stretch beyond traditional roles to assume roles that would strengthen the public health workforce and make seminal contributions to improved population health. Barriers to be overcome in pursuit of that future are also addressed. The paper will conclude with a public health-focused call to pharmacy.
