Welcome to When The Pharmacy Closes Podcast! This podcast is hosted by Chris Allen and Clarissa Andrade, we are second year pharmacy students. We though that it would be a fun endeavor to start a podcast that can tell future pharmacy students and our friends and family about our experiences as pharmacy students and about pharmacy. Also, we called this podcast when the pharmacy "closes" so that we can talk about other topics outside of pharmacy. That may include dating, games, reviews, or anything. Enjoy our episodes, awkwardness, and evolution into podcasting with new episodes ever Saturday!
Happy release day!! This week, we have a special guest, Michelle Finger! We met Michelle through our pharmacy school's ambassador-P1 program and have become friends with her over the last year. In this episode, we compared our undergraduate experience to Michelle's in a different country, her current experience as a P1, her goals in pharmacy, and other topics. Thank yall for listening and we hope you enjoy!

Hi Everybody! We have mentioned before that we have different pharmacy experiences in both the community setting and the hospital setting.

We are sharing horror stories we have had in our five years of working in various pharmacies. Disclaimer! We are not saying our jobs are bad, but this is a "horror story" episode so we are telling the bad parts we've had. Grab a snack and let us know what you would do in these situations.

S1E4: PharmTech: Hospital Pharmacy vs. Community Pharmacy
Some quick background about us is that we had attended the same high school where we were in the same pharmacy technician certification course together. We had both started to work in a pharmacy right after receiving our licenses and certifications, but we initially gone in different settings. Chris has four years of experience in inpatient pharmacy while Clarissa has four years of experience in outpatient pharmacy. In this episode, we talk about the differences between working in the hospital and working at your local retain pharmacy. Both are great opportunities, but we hadn't realized how different they were until recording this episode. We hope you enjoy!
