Richards Pharmacists are not just pill- counters. But, it is a role most people associate with the white-jacketed health care workers. "In imiversity, the instructors are stressing patient counselling," said University of Toronto pharmacy student, student, Laura Wilcock Wilcock, a graduate of Courticc Secondary $chool, recognizes the perception perception will live on, but she has never viewed the profession in that way. "People don't realize the knowledge knowledge pharmacists have. We're not just pill-counters." Her earliest perception of what a pharmacist does was formed by an aunt, who was a pharmacist, she said recently. Since then, a whole new world of pharmacy has opened up to include hospitals and the retail trade. "There are three areas where pharmacists pharmacists can find jobs," she said. These include retail pharmacies, hospitals, and industry," she noted. In the industry side of things, a pharmacist could work in research or sales. Wilcock, who is from north of Tyrone, Tyrone, has worked for McGregor IDA in the past. She has now worked at Memorial Hospital Bowmanville and is eyeing the hospital sector as a career career option. "I worked for McGregor's IDA for three summers and did my co-op placement there," she said. While at Memorial Hospital Bowmanville, Bowmanville, Wilcock has used a number of working skills she has been studying. studying. "I have been dealing with IV therapies, therapies, mixing solutions, preparing antibiotics antibiotics and preparing mini-bags," the pharmacy student noted. She has also prepared total nutrition nutrition drips, and narcotic drips. In addition, the student visited the Oshawa General Hospital's chemotherapy chemotherapy department. Procedures are an important part of a hospital pharmacist's work. For such pain killers as dcmerol and morphine, the procedures in obtaining obtaining them from the pharmacy arc rigorous. "There is the signing in and out on document sheets," Wilcock said. She added, "There is a lot of paper-work involved." Unlike retail pharmacists, a hospital hospital pharmacist becomes more involved with a patient, Wilcock said. In a hospital setting, the pharmacist pharmacist is able to monitor the dosage patients patients receive. Wilcock was also kept busy by setting setting up dmg information sheets for patients patients in the hospital." "They combine simple information on how to take a medicine (like on an empty stomach or not) and other practical practical information," Wilcock said. She has also been updating the IV manual at the hospital. As Vicky Reynolds, the Director of the Memorial Hospital Pharmacy Department put it: "Every hospital has its own procedures and she up-dated our manual." Wilcock was put in charge of updating updating the night pharmacy cabinets. "She did several inspections to bring the medication on hand up to date," Reynolds noted. While Wilcock was learning from on-the-job experience, she was also learning about the other jobs within the hospital too. "I've had to work on training reports reports all summer," she said with a smile. "The hospital staff have been nice in talking to me about the jobs they do here." by Katharine Found On August 27 the Durham East Sheep Club held their achievement program at 10:00 at Blackstock Fair.
