Pharmacist
My name is Tyler Raycraft and I am going to school to become a Pharmacist. As a pharmacist, I am able to fill prescriptions that doctor’s write out for their patients. I also talk to the patients and make sure that the medicines they are taking don’t interfere with each other and any other pertinent information that the patient would need to know. I also help patients and their physicians decide the medicine that should be taken and the dosage of that medicine. In addition, my job is to explain the instructions that the physician has provided to the patient. I can talk to the patients nurse about the medication if the patient is in the hospital as well. As a pharmacist, I will work with the insurance companies of the patients so that they are able to obtain the medication that they need. There are many different settings where a pharmacist can work including hospitals, retail, in clinics and as a consultant to healthcare facilities or insurance companies.
