The book that I chose to do is Street Pharm by Allison van Diepen, the book has 297 pages, the reason I chose this book is personally I am tired novels taking place years before I am born. This novel pertains to urban problems and one kids' attempt to survive in the pressures of present day Brooklyn. Within the novel, there are several subplots, one being his love interest, Alyse, and Ty's fight to stay in school. As well as, his fight not to lose money or control of his territory. It is interesting to watch this young man, balance these things in his life and not let them interfere with each other.

In our experience with Pharmasim we learned that Marketing decision making must be very sensitive and responsive to everything going on in the industry which is very complex. Consumer responses to marketing tactics can be volatile and unpredictable and no idea is guaranteed to work well. Marketing is a matter of meticulous research, assumptions, planning, and volatility at times. Overall we took away two major points: 1) that it is important to consider the product lifecycle in evaluating how to promote businesses and, 2) that the “Sweet Spot” as a competitive advantage should be the greatest point of consideration when evaluating how to best gain leverage to beat the competition in the minds of

Prescription drug abuse has become an epidemic in the United States especially among the youth of our country. The Partnership for a Drug Free America says that 2,500 teens a day abuse prescription drugs. Abuse of these narcotics can lead to serious mental and physical consequences. Why is this such a problem, what can we do to solve it, and how is it affecting our social lives?

The twenty-first century has seen pharmaceutical companies grow in unprecedented size and strength. Due to the unprecedented growth the larger pharmaceutical companies have gained leverage and power in the prescription drug industry, but they lack innovation to market and they seek ways to help the business continue to increase its profits. The pharmaceutical industry was once ethically sound and was a valuable player in the development of human health. However, overtime with the lack of innovation pharmaceutical companies are becoming an unethical market that exploits patients, doctors and anyone else it can to increase its profitability. With eyes only on profitability this can create a hazard for patients because there

When the initial program was starting up, I impressed with how she drove to the different communities to inform the people of what the program offered. They were thrilled about the Government

My co-worker of three years, Neda a pharmacist, would say I am social and bring order to chaos and serene the pharmacy. I recall a chaotic morning when she immediately said: “I am glad you are here to help”as I entered the pharmacy. An hour later, all patients received their medication in time for pick up, refills were filled and handed to patients, the patients were called, prescriptions were filled and pharmacy was organized again. The joy we felt after catching our breath after the chaos was worth all the paper cuts and running arounds.

Dr. Mickey Canuck worked viciously on his cure for cancer. He knew that when he finished the cure, he would get to drink a full liter of pure Maple Syrup. Suddenly, there was a loud crash! in the back of his lab. He knew what horrifying creature it was.

R During the interview I was glad to learn about the new age movement because she has been talking about it for sometimes and even wanted to do reiki for me when I had surgery 3 years ago. I found out that her spirituality was very different from mine although she believe that Jesus was a great teacher. I wanted to know what her belief was. The interview with her gives me an understanding of what she was talking about. The knowledge I acquired from her is very good because it can be tricky and misleading to the people who really want to serve God with all their hearts.

Meet Doc! This little cutie sweetly lopes around while making little snuffly sounds. He LOVES playing with his tugging toys especially if it’s with his sister. If one of them has a stick or toy, the other will grab the other end and they will pull each other around. Doc is overjoyed when he gets to play or snuggle with kids and is all-around-adorable.

“Helping people on their path to better health” is a quote used by CVSHealth, I first heard it during the orientation for my pharmacy technician job. I love this quote because it really defines my purpose for wanting to be a pharmacist in the simplest way. My journey to becoming a pharmacists consist of why I selected pharmacy as a career, future goals, and my backgrounds that will help me achieve the goals that I set for myself.

Some people have moms, some people have step moms, I have both. Unfortunately, I am not close to either. After the age of 13 I grew distant from my parents, and after the age of 18 I didn't have any kind of a relationship with my father. Since there hasn't been much of a structured family in my life, it always feels nice when I am welcomed into someone else’s family. Approximately one and one half years ago, I was hired as a pharmacy technician at The Pharmacy at Wellington in Little Rock. Ever since then I have felt like I have a new family. The members of the family are always coming and going. Members come when they are hired or visit for their one month stay during rotations as a fourth year pharmacy student, and they go when they graduate and have better opportunities or move away to new areas to bigger and better things. But one thing that all members of this pharmacy share while they are with us is that they all care about each other, help each other and work towards a common goal, both in their personal life, as well as in their professional life. One member of this family that stands out in particular is the mother, Brittany H. Sanders PharmD. She is a partner in the business, as well as the glue that holds the place together. Brittany is the most respected and looked up to member of my pharmacy family. I

Today in the 21st century the roles of pharmacist have expanded tremendously. Before pharmacist had the role of solely dispensing drugs. Pharmacists were limited to only being regulatory or clinical pharmacist. Back then they were called medical purveyors who were much like today’s regulatory pharmacist and hospital pharmacist who are similar to hospital pharmacist. Now pharmacists carry many roles in healthcare. Pharmacist can play roles in public health, community, health systems, state, and federal government.

The flow of the medical community is dependent on every person employed there. The harmony it creates does not only come from the doctors or nurses, but the janitors, surgeons, receptionists, and even the pharmacists. Each job is necessary in order for the hospitals to function properly; for instance, the doctors diagnose the patient with their illness, prescribe them medication to cure it, and send them to the pharmacist, who then gives them their medication and sends them home. However, some jobs are overlooked more than others and do not receive the proper credit, like the pharmacist. Pharmacists are recognized for dispensing and sorting drugs, but their jobs help educate patients over their prescription and uphold the
