Ambulatory Pharmacist Resume
Ambulatory pharmacists help patients fill their prescriptions after being treated by doctors. They are the first person a customer sees at a community pharmacy, hospital pharmacy, or a pharmacy chain. Meeting customers on a daily basis helps them build good reputation for themselves as well as the facility. On the job, they dispense medications and advice, and serve as a mediator between customers and the insurance company. Other duties and needed skills are the same for this position just like any pharmacists.
