American Pharmacists Month LogoAs American Pharmacists Month comes to a close, we’re taking a moment to reflect on the insights shared through our articles and podcast. This year, we recognized the evolving role of pharmacists, facing challenges like labor shortages and high burnout rates, yet also leading the way in adopting new technologies such as AI and ML to enhance patient care. Our discussions highlighted the critical role of health system pharmacists in improving operational efficiencies and the financial health of healthcare businesses. We also celebrated Pharmacy Technician Day, acknowledging the increasingly complex roles of pharmacy technicians in managing drug shortages and patient care. Our expert Q&A shed light on the ongoing shifts in health system pharmacy, from acute to ambulatory care, and the use of advanced technologies to manage these changes. We thank all of our Prescribed Perspectives readers for joining us in celebrating the invaluable contributions of pharmacists and pharmacy professionals to the patients, health systems, and communities they serve.
