Abstract:
This commentary is based on the experience of teaching and observations of how pharmacy technician students can expand their perspective on patient safety by using real-life student-gathered patient data collected from community pharmacies. Pharmacy technicians in Denmark work extensively with counselling on the safe and efficient use of medications. Final-year pharmacy technician students can take the elective course in Clinical Pharmacy in Community Pharmacy, which targets the students who wish to work in depth with patient communication and quality assurance in counselling. One assignment that forms part of the course is for students to collect data about patients’ beliefs about medications. Teachers’ observations suggest that when students gather and work with their own data, they change their perspective on patients’ beliefs about medications. It also strengthens the students’ awareness of their responsibility for ensuring patient safety and contributes valid data to research in pharmacy practice.

Abstract:
Pharmacy technicians are integral members of the health care team, assisting pharmacists and other health professionals in assuring safe and effective medication use. To date, evaluation of the labor market for pharmacy technicians has been limited, and relatively little has been evaluated regarding trends in wages. The objective of this research is to use US Bureau of Labor Statistics (US BLS) data to evaluate changes in pharmacy technician wages in the United States from 1997 to 2018 relative to changes in the US consumer price index (CPI). Median hourly wages for pharmacy technicians were collected from US BLS data from 1997 to 2018. Median hourly wages were compared to expected hourly wages, with the difference, a wage premium, indicative of imbalances in the supply and demand of labor. Both positive and negative wage premiums were observed, with most positive wage premiums occurring prior to 2007 and most negative wage premiums observed after 2008. Differences in wage premiums were also observed between technicians working in various practice settings. Given the median length of employment of pharmacy technicians, it is likely that the majority of technicians working in US pharmacies have not experienced increases in their wages relative to what would be expected by changes in the CPI. This has occurred at a time when pharmacies and pharmacists are asking more of their pharmacy technicians. Researchers and pharmacy managers must continue to evaluate the pharmacy technician labor market to assure that technician wage and compensation levels attract an adequate supply of sufficiently skilled workers.

Abstract:
Antibiotics resistance still remains the problem in treating infection disease both in developing and developed country. One of the factor contribute to the increase of antibiotics resistance is irrational antibiotics use without prescriptions. There is still lack of information about factors related to the antibiotics dispense by pharmacy staff. This study was aimed to observe pharmacy staff knowledge about the pharmacology and the regulation of antibiotics. A cross sectional online survey using questionnaire was conducted to pharmacy staff who work for service in Sidoarjo from February to April 2020. The knowledge of antibiotics was classified into lack, enough, and good knowledge. A total of 233 respondents from 56 pharmacy recruited in this study. Of them, 17,17% were pharmacist; 10,73% were pharmacy technician; 52,36% were pharmacy assistant and 19,74% non pharmacy worker. Overall the majority of respondents had a good knowledge about antibiotics (48,93%). However, most of them did not know that only pharmacist who had responsible to dispense antibiotics based on prescriptions (58,37%), fail to describe antibiotics indications (46,35%) and had poor knowledge about the minimum length of antibiotics course (58,37%). Educating and upskilling pharmacy personel about antibiotics will minimize the irrational use of antibiotics which lead to the increase of antibiotics resistance caused by the lack information received by patients.

Abstract:
Traditional medicine therapies are historically used worldwide for disease prevention and treatment purposes. Apitherapy is part of the traditional medicine based on bee product use. Complementary medicine practices which incorporate use of some traditional herbal, mineral, or animal kind substances very often are discussed with pharmacy professionals because these products are often sold in pharmacies as dietary supplements. This study is aimed at determining the attitude, knowledge, and practices of apitherapy among undergraduated pharmacy students (Master of Pharmacy) who already have a pharmacy technician diploma and from 1 to 20 years of practice working in a community pharmacy as pharmacy assistants. A method of questionnaire was chosen. The questions about attitudes, experience, knowledge, and practices for disease prevention and treatment of different bee products, their safety, and informational sources were included. Respondents shared opinion that use of bee product is part of the traditional medicine. Most of them had experience on honey product use for treatment and disease prevention for themselves and their family members (62%) although the need of more evidence based information was expressed. The most known bee products were honey, propolis, and royal jelly. They are widely used for enhancing the immune system and prevention of respiratory tract infection.

Abstract:
Abstract Background It has been acknowledged and recognised internationally that the community pharmacy team has a major role to play in antimicrobial stewardship programmes, particularly regarding patient engagement. However, there is a paucity of published research on community pharmacy-based activities in antimicrobial stewardship, and views and perceptions of the community pharmacy team on their role in antimicrobial stewardship. Objective To explore views and experiences of community pharmacy teams across Scotland on antimicrobial stewardship, activities related to European Antibiotic Awareness Day, and a self-help guide to treating infection. Setting Community pharmacy, Scotland. Methods Qualitative, semi-structured in-depth telephone interviews were undertaken with a purposive sample of community pharmacy team members over a six week period between November and December in 2016. Interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim and data analysed thematically using the framework approach. Main outcome measure Views and perceptions of antimicrobial stewardship and European Antibiotic Awareness Day activities and role of the pharmacy team. Results Twenty-seven participants were interviewed—20 pharmacists, five pharmacy graduates completing their pre-registration year, and members of the pharmacy support team including two pharmacy technicians and one medicines counter assistant. They were working mainly in urban areas and across five regions of Scotland. Most were aware of antimicrobial stewardship but some were not familiar with the term. Participants identified roles for the community pharmacy team in antimicrobial stewardship including the importance of the pharmacy as a first port of call for self-care advice. Some participants, including pharmacists, showed lack of awareness of European Antibiotic Awareness Day; those who were aware thought it may not have the desired impact on educating the public. Most participants, irrespective of role within the team, were not familiar with the self-help guide but they perceived this as a useful resource for the pharmacy team. Conclusion The participants recognised and identified roles for the community pharmacist within antimicrobial stewardship. However, the lack of awareness of European Antibiotic Awareness Day shows a need for European Antibiotic Awareness Day tools and other materials to be more effectively disseminated and for more training to be provided.

Abstract:
AimPatients are more likely to experience a ‘medicines-related safety incident’ when medicines reconciliation happens more than 24 hours after admission to an acute setting,1 according to the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE). The study aimed to assess the impact on medicine reconciliations following the introduction of a dedicated Paediatric Medicines Management Pharmacy Technician to the paediatric wards at a District General Hospital (DGH).MethodsData has been routinely collected by the pharmacy department over of a number of years showing the time of medicines reconciliations compared with the time of hospital admission. This data shows the number of medicine reconciliations that were completed within 24 hours of hospital admission and the number that were not completed within 24 hours. The data is routinely collected on the Thursday of the first full week of every month. All patients that were admitted to the paediatric wards were included in this data. The service is only funded Monday to Friday through the Child Health Department of the DGH. This data excludes neonates admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Data was collected from 83 paediatric patients in March/April/May 2017 and 78 paediatric patients in March/April/May 2019.ResultsData collected for the paediatric patients over March/April/May 2017 showed that around 21.7% of all paediatric patients admitted to the wards had a completed medicines reconciliation within 24 hours. The data collected over the same period in 2019 showed that 85% paediatric patients admitted to the wards had a completed medicines reconciliation within 24 hours.ConclusionThis study was useful in demonstrating the effectiveness of introducing a dedicated Paediatric Medicine Management Pharmacy Technician to the paediatric wards in a DGH. It showed that the proportion of medicine reconciliations within 24 hours prior to the change was very low, but after the change it was very high with nearly all patients having a completed medicines reconciliation within 24 hours. Prior to the introduction of a dedicated Paediatric Medicines Management Pharmacy Technician, the paediatric wards at this DGH were not meeting the standards set by NICE regarding medicines reconciliations within 24 hours of being admitted to an acute setting. After the introduction the paediatric wards were meeting these standards. By meeting NICE guideline QS120 Medicines Optimisation, the DGH has reduced the likelihood of medicines-related safety incidents. With the introduction of a dedicated Paediatric Medicines Management Pharmacy Technician there have been many other benefits. These include counselling to parents/children on the use of their medicines; checking of patients’ own medicines to see if they are still fit for purpose; advice to parents about unlicensed medicines and why they are used; where to obtain further supplies when new medicines have been started; and assisting parents and GP surgeries with any supply issues.ReferenceNational Institute for Health and Care Excellence.

Abstract:
Background Like other health professionals, community pharmacists are exposed to stress factors (being efficient, avoiding mistakes and bearing emotional load), but they are also under the pressure of entrepreneurial responsibilities. The main objective was to assess the level of work-related stress in French community pharmacies. The other objectives of the study were to assess the associated comorbidities and causes of work-related stress. Methods This observational cross-sectional study was sent to all French community pharmacies by email. The survey was anonymous and designed to collect the following items: socio-demographic factors, professional status, characteristics of community pharmacy, work-related stress (visual analogic scale—VAS), fatigue (VAS), sleep disturbances (questions), anxiety and depression symptoms (hospital anxiety and depression scale), medical consultation for work-related stress, medication use for work related stress, psychoactive drug-use and causes of work-related stress. Participants were included in the survey if they were pharmacists (owner or assistant) or pharmacy technicians working in a community pharmacy at the time of the survey. Exclusion criteria were defined as follows: pharmacy students or other professionals involved in a community pharmacy (e.g. dietician, beautician) and lack of professional status information. There was no age limitation. Results After three months of data collection, 1,339 participants answered the survey and 1,272 participants were included in conformity with the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and to avoid missing data on the primary endpoint. Work-related stress was detected in 32.8% (417/1,272) of individuals (scores ≥70/100). Men were significantly more affected than women and there was no difference between professional statuses and no relation with the age of the participants. Work-related stress was significantly associated with anxiety, depression, fatigue, sleep disturbances, medical consultations, medication use, alcohol consumption above the WHO recommendations for men and psychoactive drug use. Three causes of stress were clearly identified and related to stress levels, workload, working atmosphere and deterioration of work quality. However, causes of work-related stress were significantly different among professionals, for example: entrepreneurial burden for pharmacists-in-charge and workload for employees (assistant pharmacists and pharmacy technicians). Discussion Work-related stress has a very strong impact in French community pharmacies. This stress was associated with several comorbidities and induces health resource consumption. Several causes of work-related stress have been identified such as workload, working atmosphere and deterioration of work quality; however, these causes could be detected and managed to improve stress levels. We recommend developing individual and organizational stress management in French community pharmacies.

ObjectiveTo identify the extent to which administrative tasks carried out by primary care staff in general practice could be automated.DesignA mixed-method design including ethnographic case studies, focus groups, interviews and an online survey of automation experts.SettingThree urban and three rural general practice health centres in England selected for differences in list size and organisational characteristics.ParticipantsObservation and interviews with 65 primary care staff in the following job roles: administrator, manager, general practitioner, healthcare assistant, nurse practitioner, pharmacy technician, phlebotomist, practice nurse, pharmacist, prescription clerk, receptionist, scanning clerk, secretary and medical summariser; together with a survey of 156 experts in automation technologies.Methods330 hours of ethnographic observation and documentation of administrative tasks carried out by staff in each of the above job roles, followed by coding and classification; semistructured interviews with 10 general practitioners and 6 staff focus groups. The online survey of machine learning, artificial intelligence and robotics experts was analysed using an ordinal Gaussian process prediction model to estimate the automatability of the observed tasks.ResultsThe model predicted that roughly 44% of administrative tasks carried out by staff in general practice are ‘mostly’ or ‘completely’ automatable using currently available technology. Discussions with practice staff underlined the need for a cautious approach to implementation.ConclusionsThere is considerable potential to extend the use of automation in primary care, but this will require careful implementation and ongoing evaluation.

Abstract:
Background: This research explored regulation and professionalism with respect to the current state of professional practice for hospital pharmacy technicians. Since July 2011 pharmacy technicians must register with the General Pharmaceutical Council in order to practise. An acknowledged benefit of registration is professional recognition; however there is a lack of published research about pharmacy technicians’ professionalism with no study found that offers a holistic exploration post mandatory registration. Method: This study utilised a broad discourse analytic approach to examine how pharmacy practitioners talk about the pharmacy technician role, regulation and professionalism, being sensitive to the content of these accounts but also the ways in which they are constructed and the varying rhetorical effects and power. The sociology of the professions provided the theoretical background for this study to examine the notion of professionalism in modern healthcare and whether or not pharmacy technicians are enabled to undertake the professional practice for which they are now accountable. Data were gathered through interviews with pharmacy technicians, pharmacists and Directors of Pharmacy, which were digitally recorded and transcribed prior to discourse analysis. Findings: The findings illuminate gaps in the professional socialisation of pharmacy technicians related to 1) Policy: a lack of appropriate conditions and opportunities for pharmacy technicians to demonstrate professional practice and contribute to current policy implementation, 2) Practice: pharmacy technicians do not have the supportive infrastructure to enable their own professional practice or carry out research, and 3) Education and Training: current qualifications are traditionalistic and not fit for purpose. Discussion: Recommendations are made in relation to these three concerns, including: development of pharmacy technician practice to take responsibility for the supply chain of medicines; review organisational structures, roles and discourses to enable this clear division of labour; the Association of Pharmacy Technicians UK promotes the development of a ‘Scope of Professional Practice for Pharmacy Technicians’ to support practice development and clarify accountabilities, and improves promotion of pharmacy technician research activity; and finally, review the content and level of pharmacy technician pre- and post-registration qualifications to address identified gaps and to support a structured career pathway. Findings from this study have already been transferred into practice in terms of: development of national recruitment guidance; establishment of a ‘Professionalism Programme’ for all local pharmacy staff; development of terms of reference for a local pharmacy technician professional forum to enable professional development and leadership; and, the initiation of discussions to develop a national pharmacy technician professional forum in Scotland.

Abstract:
Pharmacists rely on pharmacy technicians to assist with accurately dispensing prescriptions and providing information to clients. Texas does not have regulations for the education or training of pharmacy technicians, which may result in mistakes when dispensing prescriptions, causing significant harm to customers. The purpose of this qualitative phenomenological study was assessing formally and informally trained pharmacy technicians' job performance as perceived by licensed pharmacists/managers. Data were collected via face to face interviews with 9 pharmacy managers in Texas to gain insight into their lived experiences of supervising not formally and formally trained technicians. Audio recorded interview data were transcribed and organized using the NVivo software. The job performance theory was used to help understand and interpret the data. Pharmacists/managers indicated that pharmacy technicians who receive formal training, when compared to those who have been informally trained on-the-job, have more knowledge, better job performance, less need for training and supervision, and greater salary and other job related opportunities. All 9 of the respondents indicated that the State of Texas should develop a formal set of professional standards for pharmacy technicians and require a formal certification training program. The potential positive social change of this study is a better understanding of the job training and performance of pharmacy technicians that can improve services to communities.

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this work is to evaluate the effectiveness of an educational intervention, regarding prescription errors, amongst pharmacy technician students. METHODS: Pharmacy technician students over the age of 18 years attending Apollo College in Tucson, Arizona were eligible to participate. Pretests were given to students to assess baseline knowledge of medication errors. Posttests consisting of questions regarding medication errors were administered to students following a PowerpointTM presentation to assess the effectiveness of the presentation. RESULTS: Pretests and posttests were completed by 18 women and 14 men. Test scores improved significantly from 5.652 to 8.13 out of 10 in the morning class (P< 0.01), 5.8 to 8 in the evening class (P< 0.01), and 5.697 to 8.091 for both classes combined (p< 0.01). Differences in scores based on gender and general employment status did not reach statistical significance (p> 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: An educational intervention is effective in improving pharmacy technician student knowledge about prescription errors.

Historicamente, a situação da assistência farmacêutica no município deSão Paulo sempre foi deficitária, principalmente no que diz respeito à qualidade da formação técnica de seus recursos humanos, assim como também no que se refere à quantidade destes, que atua nas farmácias das Unidades de Saúde do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS). Diante desse quadro, a área técnica de assistência farmacêutica da Secretaria Municipal da Saúde (SMS), a coordenação do Curso Técnico em Farmácia da Escola Técnica do Sistema Único de Saúde do município de São Paulo (ETSUS-SP) e farmacêuticos do município optaram por formar técnicos para a área, profissionalizando os funcionários sem formação específicaque atuavam nas farmácias das unidades de saúde. O currículo do Curso Técnico em Farmácia foi criado com base no processo de trabalho desenvolvido nas farmácias das unidades de saúde. Foi estruturado em módulos, com uma carga horária total de 1.200 horas e 200 horas de estágio supervisionado. No período de 2006 a 2008 seis turmas concluíram o curso, tendo sido formados 140 trabalhadores. O presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar o Curso Técnico emFarmácia da ETSUS-SP, por meio do levantamento das opiniões dos egressos e docentes. Realizou-se uma pesquisa de abordagem quanti-qualitativa executada na região sudeste do município de São Paulo, com a utilização de questionário aplicado aos egressos e de entrevista semiestruturada feita com os docentes da turma finalizada em 2007. Pelos resultados obtidos nesta pesquisa, verificou-se que o Curso Técnico em Farmácia atendeu a sua finalidade, qual seja, a de formar trabalhadores para as farmácias do SUS, entendendo ser a farmácia um estabelecimento de saúde e que necessita de profissionais com formação específica. No entanto, de acordo com os docentes e de 70 por cento dos egressos, o curso deve sofrer reformulação, sobretudo no tocante a sua atualização. Como proposta de ação, sugeriu-se uma oficina de trabalho para a reelaboração do currículo. Nesta pesquisa ficou constatado que apesar de a Secretaria Municipal da Saúde, por meio da ETSUS-SP, oferecer oportunidade de formação técnica adequada, os profissionais titulados muitas vezes não são aproveitados na nova área. Ficou demonstrado também que não há incentivo financeiro para continuarem atuando na área e que a contratação por concurso público não semostra atrativa, pois são funcionários antigos de outras carreiras.
Historically speaking, the situation of the Pharmaceutical Assistance in the city of São Paulo was presented a deficit, mainly in terms of quality and amount of human resources that work in pharmacies of the Health Units. Facing the poor situation, the Pharmaceutical Assistance technical area of the Municipal Health, the Coordination of the Course of Technician in Pharmacy of the School Technician of System Unique of Health of city of São Paulo (ETSUS-SP) and local pharmacists decided to graduate technicians for the area, professionalizing the ones who worked in pharmacies of the units of health, without specific formation. The Course of Technician in Pharmacy was then based in the process of work developed in pharmacies of the units of health of the System Unique of Health (SUS). It was structuralized in modules, with a total schedule of 1,200 hours with 200 hours of supervised period of training. One hundred forty students were graduated in period of 2006/8. The present study aimed to analyze the Technician Course in Pharmacy of the ETSUS-SP, questioning graduated students and professor. A quanti-qualitative research was carried out, questioning students and a semi-structuralized interview was applied to the professors at the end of the graduated year of 2007 in the Southeastern region of the city of São Paulo. The results found in this research showed that the Technician Course in Pharmacy has reached its purpose, i.e., to graduate workers for pharmacies of the SUS, having in consideration that pharmacy is not just a place, but somewhere of health as well, and it needs professionals with specific knowledge of the field. However, in accordance with the opinion of the graduates and professors, the course must be re-formuled. 70% of the interviewers said the course must update itself. As a proposal action, a workshop was suggested, aiming to re-elaborate the curriculum. It was evidenced that although the SMS, by ETSUS-SP, offers the opportunity of graduation for its workers, these same employees are not fully used in their new area. We should go farther. There is no financial incentive for the old career employees from other areas and hiring them by public examinations doesn’t show very attractive.

OBJECTIVES: To describe a pharmacy technician and student intern-driven medication reconciliation process and to evaluate medical provider acceptance of recommendations to reorder critical medications. METHODS: Patients admitted to Northwest Medical Center had medication histories taken on admission. A specially trained pharmacy technician or student intern reviewed these histories, with emphasis placed on critical medications as defined by the Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee. Recommendations to re-order these critical medications were made to medical providers. All patients, excluding those under 18 years of age or current enrollment in the prison system, admitted during the months of May-June 2010 were reviewed for acceptance of critical medication recommendations through information recorded in the pharmacy electronic medical record system. RESULTS: One hundred seventy-eight (178) recommendations were made on 132 patients requiring recommendations. All medical providers accepted 102 (57%, p-value=0.008) of the recommendations made. Hospitalists were more likely than physician specialists or surgeons to accept recommendations made (62.5%, p-value<0.001). Recommendations made regarding thyroid products were accepted the greatest majority of the time (82.1%, p-value<0.001); antidepressants (54.8%, p-value=0.321), anticonvulsants (63.2%, p-value=0.194), and medications classified as other (55.6%, p-value=0.480) were also accepted a majority of the time. Vitamin K antagonists did not have recommendations accepted a majority of the time (31.8%, p-value=0.034). CONCLUSION: Medical providers accepted a majority of recommendations to reorder critical medications made by pharmacy technicians or student interns.

Abstract:
[Introduction] The 1980s have ushered in an era of extreme competitive pressure for the modern business organisation. In previous times many business organisations have succeeded simply because of the excellence of their products, with little concern or attention being paid to the wants and needs of potential customers. As the business environment has become more competitive, however, the point of focus has changed. There is ample evidence which suggests a correlation between success in business and firms which have adopted a marketing-orientated philosophy of business. The evolution of marketing as a discipline has been hastened in recent times by the need of the firm to survive in the face of increasing competition. This "increasing attention" is occurring because of the realisation that sheer product excellence alone will not necessarily mean that the firm will succeed in establishing a group of satisfied customers in the long term. It is the adoption of the so-called "marketing concept" which provides the opportunity for the firm to develop a competitive edge which will more likely eventuate in success.

Este estudo tem por objetivo identificar formas de inserção dos técnicos de nível médio em farmácia nos serviços de Assistência Farmacêutica (AF) na Atenção Básica à Saúde (ABS) do Sistema de Único de Saúde (SUS). Para isso, foi realizada uma revisão bibliográfica e uma análise documental, além de um mapeamento dos cursos técnicos em farmácia, utilizando-se dados disponíveis no Banco de Dados do Observatório dos Técnicos em Saúde (BEPSAÚDE), da Escola Politécnica de Saúde Joaquim Venâncio, da Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (EPSJV/Fiocruz). Neste sentido, foram analisados documentos e fontes ligados ao tema da pesquisa, abordando o SUS, a ABS, as Políticas Farmacêuticas no Brasil e a Educação Profissional em Saúde no Brasil com ênfase na formação dos profissionais em farmácia de nível médio. Visando facilitar o estabelecimento de um diálogo entre os documentos elencados para a pesquisa, inicialmente, estes foram organizados em três segmentos distintos: saúde, educação e regulamentação das práticas farmacêuticas. O mapeamento por meio do BEPSAÚDE, apontou: expressiva evasão, a partir do número de matriculados e de concluintes nos cursos técnicos em farmácia; e que o número de concluintes (técnicos em farmácia) pode ser considerado ainda pequeno quando comparado ao número de farmacêuticos inscritos nos conselhos de farmácia. Diante de uma possível ampliação da ABS na incorporação de técnicos em farmácia, sugere-se um maior incentivo para que, preferencialmente, as instituições públicas de ensino, além das privadas, realizem tais cursos, considerando-se que os técnicos de nível médio em farmácia apresentam em seu perfil de formação habilidades e competências condizentes com inúmeras demandas do serviço de AF da ABS do SUS.
This study aims to identify ways of insertion of intermediate level technicians in pharmacy in pharmaceutical assistance activities (PA) in Primary Health Care (PHC) of the Unified Health System (SUS, acronym in Portuguese). For this, a literature review and documental analysis was performed, and a mapping of intermediate technical courses in pharmacy, using data available in the Observatory Database of Health Technicians (BEPSAÚDE, acronym in Portuguese), from the Polytechnic School of Health Joaquim Venâncio, Oswaldo Cruz Foundation (EPSJV/Fiocruz). In this sense, documents and sources related to the subject of the research were analyzed, addressing the SUS, the PHC, the Pharmaceutical Policies in Brazil and the Health Professional Education in Brazil with emphasis on training of professionals in intermediate level in pharmacy. To facilitate the relation among selected documents for research, initially, these were organized into three distinct segments: health, education and regulation of pharmaceutical practice. The mapping through BEPSAÚDE, points: a significant evasion, from the number of enrolled and graduating in intermediate technical courses in pharmacy; and that the number of graduates (intermediate technicians in pharmacy) can be considered still small compared to the number of registered pharmacists in regional board of pharmacy. Once there is a possible expansion of PHC in the incorporation of intermediate level technicians in pharmacy, it is suggested a greater incentive for that, preferably, public educational institutions, in addition to private, offer such courses, considering that the intermediate level technicians in pharmacy have training for skills and competencies consistent with numerous demands of the PA service of PHC in the SUS.
