Pharmacy and Drug Abuse Prevention: Educating on the Dangers of Substance Misuse

On April 8, 2020, Governor Wolf Signed an order to provide targeted distribution of COVID-19 PPE and supplies to hospitals. The order requires private, public and quasi-public health care providers and facilities submit current inventory quantities of PPE, pharmaceuticals and other medical resources to PEMA by April 16, 2020.

During an inventory there should be no stock movements, i.e. incoming or outgoing stock. Within a warehouse, or close by, stocking areas should be provided. In tropical countries where termites attack wood, metal structures are preferred. As they can be dismantled, it is easy to adjust spaces between shelves and alleys to better accommodate goods to be stored. No products or packaging, even large-sized, should be stored on the floor, but on pallets which permit air circulation and protect against humidity.

Consultant pharmacists most typically work in nursing homes, but are increasingly branching into other institutions and non-institutional settings.[28] Traditionally[where? ] consultant pharmacists were usually independent business owners, though in the United States many now work for a large pharmacy management company such as Omnicare, Kindred Healthcare or PharMerica. This trend may be gradually reversing[citation needed] as consultant pharmacists begin to work directly with patients, primarily because many elderly people are now taking numerous medications but continue to live outside of institutional settings. Some community pharmacies employ consultant pharmacists and/or provide consulting services.

COLLEGE OVERVIEW

Most pharmacists working in community pharmacies in Palestine are graduates of Palestinian national universities. No professional development or continuing pharmacy education exists for community pharmacists in Palestine. Community pharmacies in Palestine are engaged mainly in dispensing medications, and most drugs, including antibiotics, are dispensed as nonprescription. However, compounding practices are very limited in Palestine.28 Female pharmacists are dominating the scene in community pharmacies in Palestine. According to regulations, only pharmacists can own a community pharmacy and only those with no other full-time job are allowed and granted permission to own a community pharmacy. This law is not strictly enforced, however, and most pharmacies sell medications without the presence of a pharmaceutical professional.
