GRANDVILLE, Mich., October 07, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The pharmacy tech shortage is being felt by many in the pharmacy industry. For many chain pharmacies, pharmacy tech scheduling is conducted on a local level by each pharmacy manager. Pharmacy managers needed to be able to maximize and optimize tech labor at their individual location and be able to share resources across their chain pharmacies by region.
Every year, the NACDS Regional Chain Conference exists to offer unique networking opportunities to pharmacy chain partners from across the nation, helping to address the common problems that exist within the pharmacy industry.
This year, Schedule360 was privileged to be a part of the ongoing discussion of practical, job-changing solutions within the industry. At this year's NACDS conference, Schedule360 discussed their new pharmacy technician scheduling tool, which can help pharmacy managers efficiently and effectively staff their locations with minimal stress or struggle.
The new pharmacy tech scheduling feature within Schedule360's online scheduling software allows pharmacy managers to quickly and easily find available techs in their area and communicate any and all scheduling needs within one pharmacy scheduling platform.
This new feature allows pharmacy managers to optimize their technician scheduling processes by offering a rules-based platform dictated specifically for each pharmacy manager. Open shifts can be communicated properly between full-time and PRN techs, urgent (hot shift) openings can be given priority treatment, and the scheduling of shift dates can be restricted based on the desires of the regional director.
Schedule360's tech scheduling feature allows for an increase in workplace productivity for pharmacy managers, improved communication between pharmacy managers and their techs, and optimization of all efforts to meet business objectives.
Tony Tori, Pharmacist, & President of Schedule360, realizes that this is a game changer for local pharmacy store managers. By integrating the pharmacy tech scheduling tool into Schedule360's already robust pharmacy scheduling platform, it allows pharmacy store managers to spend less time on the schedule.
"This is the missing piece of the puzzle to solve the scheduling woes of the local pharmacy store manager. Our Rx Managers spend too much time trying to fill daily schedules when they should be focused on high quality patient care and customer service."
