The Pharmacy Technician Schools are spitting out tons of technicians in the field. The cost of the schools ranges from $0 to $22,000 and the length of the course is from 4 months to 13 months. All my interviews with the technicians I have encounter from these different schools have one thing in common...they do not have concepts of making IV's and/or calculating the mathematical part of it. Majority of the applicants are in this status, so my suggestion is to have a speaker on a topic of "How to find the best candidate to fill in for Pharmacy Technicians position." thank you
How about some real networking. Let's see if we can get together some good website tips, Like the ASHP site and what it has to offer to Pharmacy Buyers. Maybe we can get someone from The ASHP to talk? Also The CDC web site has a lot to offer about flu vaccine availability around flu season, even our own GPO web site and your local State Board and DEA web sites, the list goes on and on.
