What would happen if no pharmacists were available to fill your prescription at the local drugstore, or to recognize medication errors in the emergency room?
That could be reality if America doesn't train another 150,000 pharmacists by 2020.

To help teachers encourage students to pursue a career in pharmacy, health and science, the pharmaceutical company Roche created a free teacher's guide in collaboration with the Parenteral Drug Association Foundation for Pharmaceutical Sciences Inc. and WLIW New York public television.
"Encouraging students who already have an interest in health and science may be key to closing the potential shortage gap of pharmacists," said Vivian L. Beetle Herr Adidas NMD CS2 Triple Svart Löparskor Sverige , director of corporate relations and contributions for Roche. "Roche believes that teachers play a positive and vital role in directing students into a career path."
The guide is designed to help teachers identify students with an interest in science and show them how to engage students in dialogue about career opportunities in pharmacy. It includes profiles of students who have pursued a career in pharmacy, a list of colleges and professional organizations and a student self-assessment tool.
