A rash from poison ivy, poison oak or poison sumac is caused by an oil found in these plants called urushiol (you-ROO-shee-all). When this oil touches your skin, it often causes an itchy, blistering rash. Most people can safely treat the rash at home.
Most Pharmacy Technician training courses run from about six months to a year, depending on the course. In that time, you will learn the skills required to operate a pharmacy, follow correct pharmaceutical procedures, provide the correct drug dosages, and assist the pharmacist in administrative tasks.
Most people who end up working as a entry-level pharmacy technician non-certified, in a retail environment end up quitting within 1 -3 years and sometimes within 6 months of being hired, due to the stressors of the environment and low pay. The pay within in a hospital pharmacy is usually above $10.00. You are usually looking at $12.00 - $15.00 an hour as a certified hospital pharmacy technician. Think of CVS/Pharmacy and Walgreenâs as the retail pharmacy versions of Burger King and McDonalds.
