As a Pharmacy Aide, you will play a crucial role in ensuring the smooth functioning of the pharmacy by assisting pharmacists and pharmacy technicians with administrative and customer service duties.

Your primary responsibilities will include greeting customers, answering phone calls, handling cash register transactions, and maintaining inventory records. You will also be responsible for stocking shelves, labeling products, and ensuring that the pharmacy area remains clean and organized. While you will not be involved in dispensing medications, your support will help pharmacists focus on patient care and medication management.
In this role, you will interact with customers regularly, so strong communication and interpersonal skills are essential.
