 I started off as a surgical technologist and then I branched into pharmacy. Pharmacy technician is responsible to prepare, label, count, and get medications ready for final verification which is done by a registered or licensed pharmacist prior to dispensing it to a patient or to a staff member to administer to a patient. Being patients and staff on the proper usage of medications, storage requirements, and proper administration or documentation is probably my most passionate part of doing my job. Being at the Mercy is on a mission that is kind of unique, not something that we have done in the past. I've never actually witnessed us doing things within our own, home court, our own country. To see that we're able to branch out to the civilian population, those that may or may not have military backgrounds, but regardless we're not focused on that, we're focused on taking care of patients, we're focused on making sure that a person is well taken care of and that we can bring them back to health if possible and that brings me great pride and joy. I'm proud to be a part of Mercy's mission.
