Unique insight and experience with management and leadership qualities in all phases of pharmacy
Barnegat, NJ
I am looking for an opportunity to use my talents, skills, knowledge and personality as a pharmacist to work as part of a team to help and provide positive outcomes and health to all patients on a daily basis.
I believe both personally and professionally there is gratification in the fact that, as health care professionals, we can provide a better quality of health and life to those who need all that we can provide through our pharmacy services. This is our mission and our goal. My experience has taught me that communication, written and verbal, are critical to positive outcomes and teamwork will always be the better course to success. You have to be able to adapt and be flexible to find a solution if something doesn’t go as planned. There are situations that become critical and that’s when you observe and identify the problem and find the best solution. The personal and professional benefits received in achieving a “win-win” scenario while observing all procedures and protocols as well as company goals will be a definite road to success for all involved parties.
