The Pharmacy Technician obviously plays a very important role in providing pharmaceutical care to patients. This role often expands in the face of personnel inadequacy in the healthcare delivery, sometimes up to the point he/she is the sole provider of pharmaceutical care. Whatever the level and scope of responsibility, it is imperative that this cadre of pharmaceutical care-giver is provided with continuous training necessary for effective performance and to update their  skills for more efficient delivery .

This course will better equip them to handle pharmaceutical calculations and extemporaneous preparations, better management of drug inventory as well as pharmacy logistics. Their communication skills will also be better sharpened and patient care delivery will be improved.

  1. This is quite interesting.

    The fee is to exorbitant for low earning professional like the Pharmacy Technicians. If reviewed, it will be better and affordable.
