Do Pharmacy Technicians have a set work schedule?
Schedules for Pharmacy Technicians may vary, including full-time and part-time work. Pharmacy technicians usually work the same hours as pharmacists. This may include evenings, nights, weekends, and holidays. Because some hospital and retail pharmacies are open 24 hours a day, technicians may work varying shifts. As their seniority increases, technicians often have increased control over the hours they work. There are many opportunities for part-time work in both retail and hospital settings. Is there any reason I should not become a Pharmacy Technician? Candidates interested in becoming pharmacy technicians cannot have prior records of drug or substance abuse. Strong interpersonal and communication skills are needed because there is a lot of interaction with patients, coworkers, and healthcare professionals. Teamwork is very important because technicians are often required to work with pharmacists, stock, doctors, personal, nurses, and other technicians. I want to be a Pharmacist one
