Penny Daynes

Digital Pharmacy Expert Advisory Group (DP EAG)

Penny Daynes is the Lead Pharmacist for Operations, Medicines Management and Procurement at Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Trust. She has been involved in pharmacy digital systems since 2007 when she helped implement e-prescribing for chemotherapy as an oncology pharmacist. 

Penny has also led the ePMA workstream for a large EPR Project across a neighbouring trust (Bradford) and is working on pharmacy automation projects, e-CD registers, integration and optimisation projects. She is currently studying as a member of the NHS Digital Academy cohort 3 and learning lots about digital transformation.

Penny is very enthusiastic about the adoption of digital systems within pharmacy to improve workflows and medicines safety and also keen to help upskill pharmacy staff.

Penny is looking forward to serving on the Digital Pharmacy Expert Advisory Group and to helping to move the pharmacy digital agenda forward.
