The Biggest Challenge for Pharmacists

Fred Eckel, RPh, MS, explains why the lack of readily available resources amid expanding responsibilities is the biggest challenge for pharmacists in the current industry landscape.

"Pharmacists have a traditional role that's associated with distributing medication. That role hasn't gone away as we've tried to expand our role," he notes. "So, the pharmacist has to learn how to juggle now as they take on more patient care responsibilities."
