What are the reasons to become a
pharmacist ?
Why pharmacy ?!
• I Want to Help People Get Well
• I Like to Work Directly with Patients
•  I Want to be an Important Member of the
Healthcare Team
• I Would Like to Be a Highly Respected
Member of My Community 
The main characters of a good pharmacist :

• The good pharmacist has a strong moral


character and displays honesty, takes
responsibility for the patients’ medication.
1. Own up to your mistakes:
• We all make mistakes, it’s part of being a
human. However, if you make a mistake, own
up to it. The one guaranteed way to make a
bad situation worse is to try and cover it up.
2. Be honest with yourself:

• Be honest with yourself. If you don’t know (and


there will be much you don’t!) ask those who
do (colleagues).
3. Be kind:

• Try to be the pharmacist you would want to


care of you and your family. Never forget
kindness.
4. Put yourself in their shoes:

• Put yourself in the patient shoes for a moment.


Really listen to them before you respond, show
your humanity as well as your professional
knowledge.
5. Don’t be afraid to check something:

• If you’re not sure about something, don’t be


afraid to say that you need to check. Do more
listening than speaking.
6. Keep learning:

• You don’t have to know it all now- the learning


continues!
-Communicate well with your team, they are
available!
• Are you ready to dispense drugs,
suggest the right medicine, and offer
people all the medical advice they need?

Best of luck !
