In order to obtain these prescriptions, they likely interacted with a pharmacist. As health care providers, pharmacists’ primary responsibilities include dispensing and managing medications and educating patients on medication use. In addition to traditional responsibilities, pharmacists are also taking on new roles delivering patient services in various health care settings as a part of care teams.
