Description
A Certified Pharmacy Technician (CPhT) is a professional who works alongside pharmacists in various settings, such as retail pharmacies, hospitals, and long-term care facilities, to help manage medication orders and ensure that patients receive the correct medications.
To become a CPhT, individuals must complete a comprehensive training program and pass a certification exam. This training covers a wide range of topics, including medication preparation, prescription processing, drug interactions, inventory management, and patient care.
CPhTs work closely with pharmacists to help prepare and dispense medications, as well as to maintain accurate records of medications and patient information. They may also assist with insurance claims and patient consultations, providing education on medication use and potential side effects.
