News Drug Applications
This just in from Gov. Christine Gregoire’s office:
Pharmacy Board Two positions open in January. Applications are being accepted now! Establishes policy for the practice of pharmacy, including licensing, disciplinary hearings and enforcement of laws pertaining to legal drugs; licenses the manufacture and sale of poisons. Qualifications: Two Licensed Pharmacists.
Two terms (on the 7-seat board) expire next year: Chair Asaad Awan and Seattle pharmacist Donna Dockter—the pharmacist who pushed conscience or refusal clause language earlier this year.
To that I say: Apply, apply, apply all you elitist, urban, secular pharmacists. It’s not clear to me how the recent FDA rule on Plan B will play out in the drug store (and the under 18 issue is certainly still a sticking point), so it’d be nice to stock the board. Dockter can reapply too.
So, if I were to apply, would I get any Bennies?
