(EMAILWIRE.COM, January 09, 2012 ) La Prairie, Quebec, Canada -- The senior writer on the Pharmacy Technician Certification Exam website today announced the release of a new article which answers the question “What Do they Teach in Pharmacy Technician Schools”. The writers on the site routinely conduct research into the pharmacy tech industry and publish the findings on the company’s website.
Pharmacy tech schools teach students how to interpret prescriptions, how to calculate dosages and how to prepare drugs including compounding of prescribed medications. Students also learn about pharmacology terminology, adverse drug reactions, pharmacy law and dosage forms.
“I had wanted to go to pharmacy tech school for about four years. But I never did any research or got serious about it until I landed on your website. Thanks for your information and for making it easy to find a school that is close to my house. I start training next week and I’m so excited!” – Jan Prescott
A pharmacy technician helps the pharmacist by counting pills, entering the customerÂ’s prescription data into a computer, performing drive thru service, stocking the pharmacy with bottles, caps and bags. And they answer the pharmacyÂ’s phone and cover the cash register. A tech also assists customers with their questions and issues on the phone and in person inside of the pharmacy.
The health care industry is one of only a few that continues to grow and add jobs at a steady pace. Opportunities for students who have earned a pharmacy technician certification are expected to remain strong for about the next five to ten years as the baby boomers continue to get older. In addition, cost-cutting measures because of the slow economy have forced pharmacists to increase the responsibilities their pharmacy technicians to include duties that were previously handled by a licensed pharmacist. So the outlook for pharmacy techs is pretty good, especially for students who graduate from a two year associates program.
