Clinical Pharmacist Career

The career of those in pharmacology is changing with the times. The duties of pharmacists reach beyond pill dispensing on a day-to-day basis. In hospital settings, a clinical pharmacist is directly involved as a part of the patient care team. Many pharmacists make rounds with physicians, have input into drug therapy management, and carefully monitor the response of patients to the prescribed medications.

As more hospitals and ambulatory care clinics recognize the benefit of an on-site clinical pharmacist, the career options are growing. Depending on the size of the facility, several levels of pharmacy experience may be required to handle the patient load–which opens the door for moving into pharmaceutical department management.
