Experience as part of a pharmacy team is not enough to make you a pharmacist

摘要

I read with surprise recent comments by some pharmacy support staff,more so that such comments come at a time when the Royal Pharmaceutical Society is developing a laudable framework for this group through voluntary registration and co-ordinated training.Some overzealous members of this group seem to be moving faster than their feet already.I am concerned because any form of pressure from within is a potential threat to the profession's effort to advance the course of pharmacy,and may impede moves to develop roles to make use of the skills that pharmacists already possess.
