Pharmacy Tech is Vital in Healthcare

Pharmacy technicians work under the supervision of the pharmacist, performing important tasks that enable people to get their necessary prescriptions filled. From assembling medicines to providing important information, these professionals are an integral part of the healthcare industry!

A career as a pharmacy technician is a rewarding one. On any given day, you help people who are facing some kind of illness or chronic condition. Some tasks, such as managing the dispensary area and ensuring medications are in stock, you may complete on your own, while other tasks may require the supervision of the pharmacist.

Some other responsibilities of pharmacy technicians are mixing intravenous solutions, labeling bottles, counting tablets, speaking with insurance companies, and receiving written prescription requests over the phone. Because these professionals act as a liaison between doctors, insurance companies, patients and pharmacists, they are indispensable members of the healthcare team.

Why We love  Healthcare

Without question, the healthcare industry is one of the fastest growing. This growth is due in part to an aging population, who will require additional medical services. More people also have access to health insurance now than at any other time in history, which adds to the demand for more services and skilled healthcare workers.

Whether patients are dealing with a sudden illness or injury, or battling a chronic condition, they will all most likely be prescribed some form of medication as part of their treatment plan. From steroids and other anti-inflammatories to pain relivers and antibiotics, prescription medications play a large role in our Western healthcare system.  And that is exactly why pharmacy technicians will also play a large role in the industry for years to come!

Just how fast is the pharmacy technician field growing?

According to the BLS (http://bls.gov), employment of pharmacy technicians is projected to grow 7% from 2018 to 2028, which is faster than the average for all occupations. This translates to roughly 40,000 pharmacy techs being employed in the next three years to meet our country’s growing healthcare demands.

There are plenty of job openings coming to the field and the future definitely looks bright!
