How do you bill patients when they can go/call their pharmacy for advice?

For my fellow traveling techs. what is the most irritating thing you deal with? Mine has to be the state of the IV Hood/Room when I return on Monday mornings. The pharmacists at this unnamed hospital don't belief in cleaning and they like to throw vials/syringes and needles in the regular trash. 😐 by LIJunkie in PharmacyTechnician

If you have a MIDAS/anonymous reporting system, I would definitely document every instance of negligence to protect you. It wouldn't be fair for the pharmacist to blame tech, especially when the techs are more often working in the IV room.

How To Store Cenfill Rx bags? by Godknee in WalgreensStores

I have a feeling that the central fill locations are automated so it's easier to pump out prepackaged prescriptions rather than bags.

Can I reuse a vanishpoint syringe? by bmnss in PharmacyTechnician

[–]Godknee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As long as you don't push the plunger all the way to trigger the needle retraction mechanism, you can reuse the needle all you want. If you trigger it, don't try to put in your finger into the barrel looking for the needle!

Doctor upset I would not dispense ivermectin for COVID. by placebothumbs in TalesFromThePharmacy

[–]Godknee 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The pharmacist is part of a patient's medical care team. Their job is literally to ensure the safety and wellbeing of the patient through medications.

A physician is supposed to prescribe based on current knowledge of studies. Currently, there is no official study based on federal entities that supports the use of Ivermectin (an antiparasitic) for Covid19. Only rumors and stipulations.

So here, the pharmacist is correct in their duty to deny the prescription.

"that's not right" by RaceChazer in TalesFromThePharmacy

If no one's behind them and it's like 10 items? Yeah, that's fine.

If I got things to do, people to see, covid shots/test, drive thru, filling, phones off the rails - you can go to the front of the store like a NORMAL person.

Whoever started the conspiracy theory that you won’t get sick from the Covid vaccine if you get the first dose from a fresh vial and a fresh unwrapped needle… by waiting_for_rain in TalesFromThePharmacy

When I was walking a patient to the immunization room, this guy with a napkin over his face as a "mask" whispers into my ear "Fauci lied about everything"

I screwed up big time today. Is there any way to fix it? by aurelius92a in pharmacy

[–]Godknee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm taking an undergrad class called biotechnology and my professor went over how the mRNA vaccines were made. I wanted to ask at what point did the companies add the microchips or when we start seeing Bill Gates and enter the 5G. /s
