This program combines the administrative skills of the Business Administration program with the specific knowledge of the Pharmacy Assistant program. Business Administrative officers oversee and set up administrative procedures, set work priorities, and manage the supply of administrative services, such as office space, supplies, and security services. Typical duties may also include handling work assignments for staff, and setting up and maintaining administrative procedures. For example, administrative officers establish work priorities, delegate work to office support staff, and ensure that deadlines are met and procedures are followed. They oversee and coordinate office procedures and routines, and put new methods in place when necessary. Pharmacy Assistants help licensed Pharmacists provide medication and other health care products to patients. Assistants usually perform routine tasks to help prepare prescribed medication, such as counting tablets and labeling bottles. They also perform administrative duties such as answering phones, stocking shelves, and operating cash registers. They refer any questions regarding prescriptions, drug information, or health matters to a pharmacist.
