Welcome to CAP

The Caribbean Association of Pharmacists (CAP) was inaugurated at a meeting of several leading pharmacy figures in the English speaking Caribbean in Kingston, Jamaica, in 1976. The vision of CAP is to advance the development and empowerment of the people of the Caribbean through excellence in the provision of all aspects of pharmacy practice.

Our Philosophy

We believe that every pharmacist has a right to self actualization within the context of a binding responsibility to contribute to improving the healthcare of all people. CAP will provide opportunities to harness and unleash the potential of Caribbean pharmacists so that they can contribute to the growth and development of the region.
