Do opportunities exist for advancement?
The department was among the first of its kind to develop a Career Ladder System for pharmacists. The Career Ladder is an organized process for advancing within one’s chosen profession. Its purpose is to recognize the increased value of employees as they grow professionally and personally. At Jefferson each new pharmacist is placed on an appropriate step within the Career Ladder. Many pharmacists have advanced through formal promotion into such positions as Advanced Practice Patient Care Pharmacist, Team Leader, Coordinator, Manager, and Assistant Director. Several such positions exist within our large and diverse department.
