PharmD is 977 years younger than an MD or DO. Here is why that matters: In 2000 all colleges of pharmacy had to convert from a bachelors to the PharmD as the sole professional degree. That’s right, you read it right the year 2000 Compared to:  -First medical degrees awarded around the year 1000 -First school of orthodontics started in 1901 In 23 years pharmacy has seen major changes:  - Collaborative practice agreement  - Prescribing rights for drugs like Paxlovid - Test or screen for and treat minor, non chronic health conditions Pharmacists in this day of age are receiving DOCTORATE level education training  Pharmacists will not just be "counting pills" anymore and will be implemented into new roles within the healthcare system/team.  The question is: Are you going to contribute to that change?  Or  Are you going to get left behind? #pharmacist #pharmacy #pharmacyadvancement #pharmd #doctoratedegree

Refining Clinical Pharmacy Services: A Collaborative Effort The role of a Clinical Pharmacist extends far beyond individual efforts—it's about harnessing the power of teamwork. A Clinical Pharmacist's responsibilities encompass delving into patient profiles, analyzing prescriptions in line with lab findings, and meticulously evaluating drug regimens. These efforts are geared towards aiding both physicians and patients in optimizing therapeutic outcomes. For a robust and dependable Clinical Pharmacy service, hospitals, whether governmental or private, must establish comprehensive departments equipped with requisite staff, facilities, and status commensurate with bed capacity, specialty areas, and unit numbers. 👉 Each unit and specialty warrants dedicated Clinical Pharmacists. 👉 Supporting each Clinical Pharmacist are professionals with technical expertise in B Pharm / M Pharm and D Pharm, tasked with data collection and documentation, alongside essential secretarial support. 👉 How can a Clinical Pharmacist effectively cater to institutions with 100, 300, or even 500+ beds alongside managing outpatient departments? 👉 Clinical Pharmacy not only supports medical practitioners but also directly benefits patients. 👉 To thrive, Clinical Pharmacy departments require meticulously structured protocols and portfolios, coupled with career advancement pathways, ensuring a professional and successful service delivery. #clinicalpharmacist #clinical #healthcare #healthcarecommunity #pharmacy #pharmacist #hospitality #hospitals #care #patientcare #teamappreciation Apex Hospitals Critical Care Hope Deepak Sharma Gurpreet Singh Vinod Verma Atul Kumar

I genuinely cherish and take pleasure in being a pharmacist. It's sad to see other pharmacists criticize our profession, which has so much potential. We actually have the ability to turn a medicine into something harmful or helpful. Some claim that job opportunities for pharmacists are limited. But in actual field of pharmacy offers a wide array of job prospects. And each role is closely connected to the healthcare industry. Pharmacists have the option to specialize as community, hospital, or clinical pharmacists, all united by the goal of improving patient well-being through medications.
