What's the salary range for an informatics pharmacist? Including the state to adjust for cost of living :)

Can someone get into informatics without residency?

[sunshine-bjih]

Please will informatics be necessary if you wish to work in the pharmaceutical Industry?

If I have worked in retail Pharmacy for 18 years, and burned out by the pressure of having to dispense medications more quickly and still safely. At the same time, customer service is a constant priority. Trying to manage those two aspects is never easy, but is becoming more burdensome in the corporate retail model. Do you feel that Pharmacy Informatics is a possible new course, with growing job opportunities, for a person who is interested in that field? If I’ve been in retail only, would it be better to get certification in Pharmacotherapy first?

My pharmacy last year project is on Artificial intelligence in Pharmacy.

In it i want to develop a fully automatic working panel. In drug discovery.

My guide says it's not a too good idea. But i think is it.

Is it. Or not i will do it. 😅😅

For the bug drug mismatch. Is this a report the physician gets daily or a dashboard accessible for those specific physicians can access via EPIC? Sentri 7 was a program I've used to help pharmacist focus on certain issues (antibiotics stewardship, INRs, CrCl, etc). Despite EPIC also a similar capabilities?

What skill sets are required? Will doing a CISSP certification help in pharmacy informatics?

[Angelxbaby]

Did you have to get a Master's for this? Is this the same thing as Pharmacy Administration?

[yvonnesheehan]

Is there a role for pharmacy technicians in informatics ?

[sowmyakonakanchi]

What is the difference between health infomatics and pharmacy infomatics? Can a pharmD graduate with a degree in health infomatics can take up pharmacy infomatics jobs?

[moshimessi]

Can you please tell me the difference between a Clinical Pharmacist and an Informatics Pharmacist? Do both these jobs require a Pharm.D? Does all Hospitals use these methods of Informatics Pharmacy? I hope you'd answer these questions. Thank You.

Great info, I’m a P1... just trying to open my eyes to different career options. But I love being around people, just not at cvs lol

[arnauddjemmo]

Is there any relationship between pharmacy informatics and data analysis/science?

[mccoykhalil]

Hey I have another question. Im looking to volunteer and start working on projects remotely but I’m not sure how. I have heard you can go through ASHP and I’m a member but I’m not sure how to start working on projects

[m.semati]

Thank you for the video Brian very helpful! Im on a pharmacy informatics APPE and frankly the department is extremely busy with integrating epic into a hospital outpatient pharmacy and a new independent hospital to a point where I feel like im not learning much even though there is so much to learn.
What are some major controversial or simply important topics in Pharmacy informatics that are hot now? This could be related to CDS and smartpumps, alert fatigue. I dont have any good references to master these concepts and how they are applied in a hospital setting. I appreciate your help.

I'm really glad I stumbled upon your video! Very informative! Questions though,
1. You said you build and design order sets and interventions....how? Do you program or reprogram existing software? What programming language?

2. You got epic training from your organization and that was a must. If a hospital uses Cerner, would the expectations be the same as Epic? Must become certified?

[Universe_Chemists]

Can you reply any one ..?
Which languages will be used in pharmaco informatics was Majour...

[naomiiroka]

I love your video. It was very informative. I am a student studying Medicinal Chemistry. I want to switch up my career path and pursue a career in Health Informatics/ Pharmacy Informatics. Do you know how I can go about doing this?

[terranceforrestjr]

If you are Pharmacy Technician do u have to have a Pharmacy degree or can you get certification to work as a Pharmacist Informatic?

[surigirl]

Awesome! thanks. Did you need to take IT classes to be able to do that part of your job ? Or was it just pharmacy school?

[ran]
