Peeped at your profile.
As someone (you) promoting people* come & train at your institution, you're promoting a very narrow & non-collab view. Your institution supports this? Not a good look. Hard pass.

I agree. But the anger should be at the corporations who don't schedule adequate staff so that walk ins can be honored.
Trust me. Our community pharmacists would love to vaccinate on demand. But they were suffering BEFORE vaccines & testing and haven't had increased FTEs

Medicine, learning, and patient care thrive in a welcoming, multi-disciplinary setting. Trying to keep people down by saying "words matter" in regards to a training title is the opposite of what we need in 2020.

My husband sent me (pharmacist) to the store to pick him up some "DayQuil" for his cough.
Instead he got separate guafenesin 600mg tabs and separate dextromethorphan. We already had APAP & IBU at home.
You got symptoms? Take a separate med per symptom, you big baby.

I've been hearing some students are being offered on site interviews as well. Placing myself in their shoes, they would NEVER turn down in person/ask for virtual for fear of retaliation.
So I'm asking on their behalf.
DO NOT HAVE IN PERSON PHARMACY RESIDENCY INTERVIEWS!
I have heard that some pharmacy residency programs are requiring on-site interviews. This is not safe and puts students and sites at risk. All interviews should be virtual this year.

what's your favorite DDI hack?
Mine is cipro + tizanidine = 🙅🏼♀️
But levo + tizanidine = 👍🏻
Difference is that cipro inhibits cyp1A2, which metabolizes tizanidine. Levo doesn't affect 1A2.
