Continuing Education Lectures include:
Running A Successful Pharmacy In Challenging Times Increasing competition from mail order and big-box pharmacies continues to threaten community pharmacists, often stagnating their prescription volumes and enticing away their best people. One way this competition improves pharmacists' (and pharmacies') output, productivity, and efficiency while enhancing retention rates and reducing potential errors is the use of customized technology solutions. This session will explore how community pharmacists can compete by increasing their services to boost earnings and differentiate themselves to their patients. Attendees of this session will leave empowered to make redeployment decisions to lead their pharmacies into the future of frontline healthcare.
Improving Efficiencies and Reducing Dispensing Errors According to studies, more than 20 percent of North Americans are 55 years or older and this growing segment of the population accounts for more than 40 percent of all prescriptions dispensed. With the existing shortage of pharmacists, as prescription volumes grow pharmacists will be forced to fill more prescriptions in less time. How can we improve output, productivity, and efficiency without the increased workload leading to increases in dispensing errors? This seminar will address these problems and propose solutions to make the practice of pharmacy more efficient without sacrificing dispensing accuracy or patient care.
How to Assess and Meet Your Technology Needs As prescription volume grows dramatically and the pharmacy manpower shortage continues to challenge retention rates, pharmacists are being required to fill more prescriptions in less time. Rising workloads raise concerns about potential prescription errors and increased pressure to keep key positions filled. One way to improve pharmacists' (and pharmacies') output, productivity, and efficiency while enhancing retention rates and reducing potential errors is the use of customized technology solutions. This session will explore how to analyze your pharmacies' technology needs and select viable solutions that fit. We will discuss how to deal effectively with your chosen supplier(s) to ensure a successful ordering and implementation process. Attendees of this session will leave empowered to make technology decisions to lead their pharmacies into the future of frontline healthcare.
