I am a Staff Pharmacist at a local hospital in a city with a population of <200,000. We are severely understaffed (both techs and pharmacists). On any given day can work from 6am-9pm, and work every other weekend. I do not feel like we are working in the interest of patient safety, but moreso that the checks are marked at the end of the day. I love the experience but I am burned out. Suggestions?
