Pima Medical Institute
The Pharmacy Technician certificate program at Pima Medical Institute will give you the tools to enter the healthcare world as a professional in a retail pharmacy, hospital, home healthcare setting, mail order or pharmaceutical wholesalers industry.
Pharmacy Technicians may assist pharmacists in providing medications and healthcare products to patients. As a certified Pharmacy Tech, you'll receive and verify prescriptions and provide medication and other health products to patients, mix intravenous solutions, receive electronic prescriptions from medical offices, stock and inventory prescriptions and over-the-counter medications. PMI's Pharmacy Technician classes will also train you to maintain client profiles and insurance claim forms. Pharmacy Techs are the key communication liaison between medical professionals, doctors, pharmacists and patients.
Pharmacy Technicians are in high demand. According to the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of Pharmacy Technicians is expected to grow faster than the average for all occupations through 2012. Employment opportunities for Pharmacy Technicians are expected to be excellent due to increased needs within the pharmaceutical industry, a larger and older population, and a greater need for medication today.
