Skills
I have over 30 years experience as a pharmacist, and have worked with different pharmacy systems during that time I also used to fill in at a hospital pharmacy back in the 1990s I am proficient at data entry, and I am efficient at visual verification, including data entry and verifying the final product In WV final verification is allowed by way of an image the technician takes while filling prescriptions, and thus prescriptions can be verified remotely if needed
I have managed technicians for many years, and have experience with their training and skill development
I was in control of inventory management while working for Fruth Pharmacy, including all aspects of ordering and returns At Walmart and CVS, most inventory functions are automated, but I was still responsible for overall quality control, including returns, recalls, and outdates
