-: My job is different every day.
It's completely people driven although in school
I went to school to be patient driven,
I now get to be people and leader driven.
It allows them to be patient driven.
And so every day it's a new challenge,
I wake up and you never know what the day will bring.
But through training and coaching with my team,
we can make sure we do the right thing.
It gives so many different aspects whether you're in
leadership, you're serving on a role with the
governor at the State Board of Pharmacy,
or you're working behind the scenes in IT.
There's so many different aspects of pharmacy
but in the end they all revolve around people and patients.
Right now our industry is going through an evolution
as we go from getting paid for a product
to getting paid for a service.
Getting our profession positioned to be providers
and get paid like other healthcare professionals
is that big challenge we are facing as an industry.
And retail chains like mine have a role to play there
where we can help influence our Congressional leaders
to make changes that will benefit the patients
while at the same time allowing pharmacy to continue.
