Individuals who help licensed pharmacists with the administrative duties of running a pharmacy. Pharmacy technicians help pharmacists provide medication and other health care products to patients, usually by performing routine tasks to help prepare prescribed medication for patients e.g., counting tablets and labeling bottles. Pharmacy aides are often clerks or cashiers who primarily answer telephones, handle money, stock shelves and perform other clerical duties. They may establish and maintain patient profiles, prepare insurance claim forms and stock and take inventory of prescription and over-the-counter medications. In some jurisdictions, the duties of pharmacy aides and technicians overlap.
