Hi all,
I'm a 4th year mPharm student about to finish my degree and enter pre-reg. I want to know what other opportunities are available with the degree and pharmacy qualifications, specifically abroad as I'm interested in moving abroad in the future.
Prospects aren't too great in the UK, so i would like to see what other options are available.
Let me know your ideas. Thank you
State of pharmacy as of current is absymal. Rates are at all time lows, locum rates are at lows, the workload and job responsibilities of a pharmacist has increased so much with basically no increase in wage to reflect that. This has been happening for years and pharmacy really is on a downwards trajectory. Yet there is NO solid union in which pharmacists can band together and proactively change things and put our foot down on these issues. Doctors do it all the time to fight against a system which tries to undrvalue all their hard work. Pharmacists are essential to the NHS, nobody can get any medication without a pharmacist. We have all had to undergo 4-5years of undergrad MPharm and an additional foundation training year for what? £22 per hour career. Something needs to change, we all can't sit on the sidelines and hope things will change, we need to take real action cos this is a joke.
